About the Role

Your duties at the health centre cover a broad field, encompassing general medicine where you meet patients of all ages and situations. You work in a health-promoting, advisory, and treatment capacity in primary care, both via phone, home visits, digital care meetings, and at the clinic.

The work involves both emergency and planned operations. You work largely independently with your own clinic, where you triage, treat, and follow up with patients. Close collaboration occurs with your colleagues at the unit and cross-professionally in the team, as well as with other actors such as home healthcare and other specialist care. Together with the health centre management, you are responsible for developing and driving the operations forward. Educating future colleagues is an important and rewarding part of our mission; therefore, supervising students is also included in your role at the health centre.

About You

You are a licensed nurse, preferably with specialist training as a District Nurse or further education in diabetes (at least 15 ECTS credits). It is an advantage if you have experience working in primary care and/or have a 7.5 ECTS credit supervisor education.

We are looking for someone who takes initiative in their work and is confident in making independent decisions. You are meticulous, have good problem-solving skills, and can prioritize your tasks effectively.

In your work, you meet many patients, so it is important that you are accommodating, attentive, and have a desire to help others. We also believe that you thrive in teamwork and have a natural ability to collaborate with colleagues and other contacts in your work. You communicate well both verbally and in writing, and are an engaged and good listener during both digital meetings and clinic visits. We would appreciate it if you have an interest in digitalization and business development.

A professional working method and good treatment of customers, patients, and colleagues are a given for you. We also expect you to live up to Närhälsan's core values: Reliable, Caring, and Innovative.

About the Recruitment Process

Selection takes place in two steps. The first selection is made by recruiters in the HR department, who invite relevant candidates to a telephone interview. Afterwards, the hiring manager makes a second selection of applicants and invites them to an interview at the health centre.

We use competency-based interviews, which means that answers to questions should be based on actual situations. It is important that you describe as concrete situations as possible and try to avoid generalized answers – this is so we can understand the situation, why you acted as you did, and what the result was.
