Vacant job

The Psychiatry Division has begun a transition to Close Care, where we move care out into the home close to the patient. The clinic is currently designing a specialist psychiatric nursing team, SPOT. Do you want to be part of the journey and develop the future of psychiatry? We are currently looking for new employees! Do you want to be one of us? Welcome with your application today.

We are looking for

We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse with good knowledge of the most common Office programs and with good knowledge of the Swedish language in both spoken and written form. A B driver's license is also a requirement. It is an advantage if you are a specialist nurse in psychiatry and/or have experience working in psychiatric care and treatment. Knowledge of record keeping and additional language skills are also a plus. Great emphasis is placed on personal qualities. As a person, you easily adapt to changing circumstances. You value and see the benefit of collaboration with others. You are secure, stable, and have self-awareness, as well as seeing the whole and considering the larger perspective.

What you will work with

Tasks included in the SPOT team may vary but may involve, for example, supportive conversations, behavior observations, anxiety management, phone follow-ups, working in resource teams around patients with complex issues, follow-up of patients from inpatient care, support for patients during leave, family conversations, collaboration with care neighbors. SPOT works on behalf of doctors from inpatient or outpatient care.

The purpose of the SPOT team is to provide more individualized nursing interventions in the home in an outpatient form instead of within inpatient care. The goal is to shorten the need for inpatient time for patients and avoid admission to inpatient care where the regular psychiatric outpatient level is not deemed sufficient. Care should be person-centered and adapted to the individual patient's needs, abilities, and well-being.

The target group for SPOT is patients within Gällivare's adult psychiatric catchment area from 18 years and older, whose care level is greater than what the psychiatric outpatient care can offer in the regular operations, but who are still not considered to be in need of 24-hour inpatient care.
