JOB DESCRIPTION

Kriminalvården provides some open healthcare services, which means that all prisons and remand prisons have healthcare clinics where inmates can seek care. In addition to nurses, there are general practitioners and psychiatrists at the clinics. As a nurse, you will have your own clinic for assessing minor ailments, but you will also assess which applicants should see a doctor. This means that you will work with both somatic and psychiatric healthcare for the inmates, assist during doctor consultations, and administer medications primarily through dose dispensing. Documentation is done in the PMO patient data journal.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for someone who is secure, stable, and self-aware. You have an easy time collaborating with others and have well-founded and clear values. In stressful situations, you remain calm, stable, and controlled. You have great integrity and the ability to make correct assessments and priorities. You are quality-conscious and meticulous, and you have the ability to structure your approach and drive your processes forward.

To thrive and succeed in your role, it is important that you share Kriminalvården's fundamental values of a humane view of humanity, respect for the individual, and the belief that people can develop. You are also aware of and understand how background, culture, and group affiliation affect yourself and others. Furthermore, you are expected to contribute to ensuring that everyone is treated equally through your approach. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.

We are looking for someone who has:

  • Licensed nurse
  • Ability to express yourself well in spoken and written Swedish

Meritorious:

  • A relevant specialization or further education for the employer, such as in psychiatry, emergency care, or outpatient care
  • Work experience in the profession

OTHER

To be considered for employment within Kriminalvården, you must meet high standards regarding suitability, judgment, security, and confidentiality awareness, and you must comply with applicable laws. This means that you stand up for democratic values and the state values that apply to Kriminalvården's operations.
