The department has recently increased the number of places and is divided into two sections, 9A and 9B, and you will be scheduled to work on one of these. We are looking for someone who finds it exciting to be part of a developing organization that provides high-quality forensic psychiatric care. When you start working with us, you will receive an adequate introduction, and during your employment, you will be offered ongoing opportunities for professional development. Here, you will be welcomed to a pleasant workplace with challenging tasks, and several different projects are conducted within the organization aimed at improving care and patient participation.

Night Caregiver, Department 9A and 9B, Forensic Psychiatry ÖrebroJob ResponsibilitiesThe 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 issues, and the work is systematic, varied, and stimulating. In department 9, the patients have come far in the care process. This means that they are in a discharge 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 caregiver, you are the one in the team who primarily works with the psychiatric care of the patient's treatment. You work together with nurses, doctors, psychologists, occupational therapists, and social workers. You also 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. The tasks are varied, and as a caregiver, 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.
