Job Description

As a nurse on Ward S102, you work with the most important thing there is – our children and young people. You will have a central role in the nursing care and become a key person in the team.

The tasks are varied and include among other things:

• Leadership and collaboration with several professions.
• Medication management, sampling, and educational meals.
• Conversations with patients and parents.
• Collaboration with residences, authorities, and neighboring care units.

Work Group

We are a positive and ambitious team consisting of doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, occupational therapists, social workers, dietitians, and psychologists. Together, we are responsible for ensuring that care maintains high quality and is based on the individual patient's needs.

About You

We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse. Experience from psychiatric care or healthcare for children and young people is meritorious but not a requirement. As a nurse, you need to feel confident with conversation as a tool and thrive in a varying work pace.

Since you work in constant dialogue with patients and colleagues, it is a requirement that you have good knowledge of the Swedish language, both spoken and written.

To thrive and fit in with us, your personal qualities are important. For this position, we are looking for a colleague who is confident in themselves, has the ability to look up, take in others' perspectives, and dares to lead others towards a common goal. The applicant should also enjoy working with relationship-building, as we on the ward use ourselves as our primary tool.
