District Doctor/Specialist in General Medicine

Strömsund Health Center welcomes a district doctor/specialist in general medicine who wants to help develop our health center!

Primary care is in an exciting phase of development with a focus on close care and the development of distance-independent care. To create better conditions for collaboration, we have established a new joint organization for primary care and ambulance care: Close Care. This development means that we will be able to work more easily together in multiprofessional teams that, with changed working methods, are more focused on people's needs and conditions.

There is a strong focus on developing the work of transitioning to close care together with other health centers, private care providers, and municipal activities. We have a common vision and mission to provide the county's residents and visitors with better health and care.

The health center, with approximately 5000 registered patients, has fresh and functional premises. Here we offer both acute and scheduled outpatient visits. Adjacent to the health center is the Primary Care Department (Näva), which we operate together with the municipality. We who work at the health center are constantly striving to offer our patients the best care, and we have the patient's best interests in focus.

Do you want to be part of this development journey, contribute your expertise, develop our health center, and become part of our wonderful team? You are warmly welcome to apply!
