Academic Children's Hospital

Small hearts need great care! We are a small hospital in the big picture, and it is in the small things that our greatness lies. Here, all the expertise a sick child may need is available, along with good collaboration, respect, and care. We offer a really good introduction for newcomers and many interesting opportunities for development. There is also unexpectedly much joy in what can sometimes be very difficult. We take care of the children and their families, and we take care of each other – because we know that we do a much better job together!

We are looking for someone who is passionate about working with children and young people and wants to be part of our fantastic child protection team!

Your future colleagues may include doctors, pediatric nurses, psychologists, and medical secretaries. We work closely together, and as a nurse, you will be the “spider in the web” for the children and young people who come to us.

Your mission

You will be part of a multidisciplinary team. Main tasks include team visits with doctors, your own patient consultations, telephone advice, referral assessments, appointment scheduling, and contact with the children's guardians, care neighbors, and authorities.

Preventive work, education, and lectures are part of our mission and are included in the nurse's responsibilities along with the rest of the team. We work cross-professionally and collaborate with other healthcare units and authorities.

What we offer:

We are a cross-professional team that works closely together with a shared holistic perspective on children's and young people's physical, mental, and social health and how these have been affected by potential traumas.

With us, you will encounter a warm culture with high ceilings, where we generously share knowledge and where every employee's voice is equally important. We enjoy developing and actively drive work within prevention, education, improvement, and research together. Here, you will receive a safe, individualized introduction, and we offer further education and skill enhancement in the subject area.

Your qualifications

You are a licensed nurse with specialized training in healthcare for children and young people or a nurse with extensive experience working with children and young people. Experience in outpatient work and working with children and young people who have been harmed is an advantage. It is desirable that you have experience in lecturing or educating and have an interest in development work and research. You should have good communication and collaboration skills as the job involves contact with various people, professions, and authorities. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.

We offer

Permanent employment at 100%. We apply a probationary period of 6 months. Interviews are conducted continuously. With us, you will receive benefits that make a difference; read about the benefits here (https://regionuppsala.se/jobba-hos-oss/bli-var-nya-kollega/formaner/ (https://regionuppsala.se/jobba-hos-oss/bli-var-nya-kollega/formaner/)).

Region Uppsala values the qualities that a balanced gender distribution and diversity bring to the organization and welcomes applicants of all genders and with different backgrounds, abilities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala places all permanently employed staff based on the needs of total defense. This means that for the individual employee, there are no obligations in peacetime, but it is solely a planning measure.

Before a hiring decision, a check of suspicion and criminal records will be conducted for all applicants who may work in psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and young people, or compulsory care of substance abusers, areas that are subject to optional record extracts. This applies to everyone who will work closely with patients, even if the tasks are not currently intended to primarily involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.

This recruitment is conducted entirely through Region Uppsala's own efforts, and we kindly ask recruitment companies and advertisement sellers not to call.
