Job Description

As a nurse with us, you have an independent and responsible job with secure colleagues around you, where you hold the leading role during your shift. Together with doctors, care assistants, and social workers on the ward, everyone, equally important, contributes their perspective to offer our patients high-quality care. Our shared competencies and experiences provide a good holistic view of each patient while we also learn from each other. We help patients somatically, psychiatrically, and psychosocially, and our joint treatment efforts yield the best results for the patient.

The daily work involves patient meetings including assessments, sampling, medication management, and supportive/advisory conversations, where you as a nurse, together with the team, plan and follow up on the patient's treatment. Contact with relatives and the patient's other network is a recurring part of the work for all employees in the unit.
