Vacant job

Are you passionate about working with children and young people in need of emergency care, and are you a registered pediatric nurse or a registered nurse? Then we are looking for you!

Your Workplace

The Pediatric Clinic is sometimes referred to as the "Little Hospital" within the larger hospital. This is because our operations cover most of the different specialties within healthcare, including medicine, surgery, orthopedics, oncology, emergency care, and neonatal care. This highlights the extensive and broad experience and knowledge we offer to both patients and employees. At the emergency department for children and young people in Karlstad, we care for children and adolescents up to 18 years of age.

With the support of experienced colleagues, you will receive an individually tailored introduction to the workplace, as a good working environment and patient safety are of utmost importance to us. The Emergency Department for Children and Young People is open to the possibility of combining employment between units.

The Pediatric Emergency Department is a 24/7 operation with shifts covering days, evenings, and nights.

Your Responsibilities

As a nurse, you will work in a team alongside pediatric nursing assistants, pediatricians, surgeons, and orthopedic specialists. Together, you will perform early assessments of children seeking emergency care. As a nurse, you will work independently using standardized procedures.

Your tasks include prioritizing children based on medical needs and carrying out individually adapted care and medical interventions. We always adapt our care to the best interests of the child and their family.

Your Skills and Competencies

We are looking for you who want to work with children and young people in need of emergency care. You must be a registered pediatric nurse, or a registered nurse with at least one to two years of experience from emergency, inpatient, and/or pediatric care.

We would like you to be skilled at building good relationships, be communicative, positive, and enjoy taking on new challenges. You thrive in a work environment that varies in pace and level of care, and you enjoy working in a team but can also work independently. You plan your work well and can make decisions based on the information available. You have a heart for children, young people, and their families.

We look forward to you becoming our colleague!
