Nurse, departments 9A and 9B, Forensic Psychiatry Responsibilities

The patients who are with us have been transferred to care instead of prison and are treated according to the Act on Forensic Psychiatric Care (LRV). The care periods are relatively long because the patients have complex problems, and the work is systematic, varied, and stimulating. In departments 9A and 9B, the patients have come far in the care process. This means that they are in a transition phase, and much of the rehabilitation takes place outside the department, with collaboration with other actors in the care chain being a significant part of our operations. The care is person-centered with the patient in focus, and as a nurse, you are the one in the team responsible for the psychiatric care in the patient's treatment. You work together with caregivers, doctors, psychologists, occupational therapists, and social workers. You need to be able to work independently and be flexible, as well as have the ability to notice and articulate the specific needs within your area that exist for each individual patient. You will be the so-called patient-responsible nurse, where you have a central role in the team in planning, implementing, and evaluating the patients' care. The tasks are varied, and you work both individually and in group activities around the patients. You are also expected to contribute to the development of the organization and take responsibility for improving the parts of the care you are responsible for.

As we in Psychiatry care about our patients and value patient safety highly, we will, in connection with the recruitment, request extracts from the suspicion and criminal records from the National Police Board. More information about suspicion and criminal records can be found in SFS 1999:1135 and SFS 1999:1134.
