About the Neonatal Unit in Lund

The neonatal unit (BB) in Lund is a highly specialized unit for pre- and postnatal care. Here, we receive patients from all over southern Sweden who have developed complications during pregnancy from week 22+0. We have close cooperation with the Delivery Ward, Neonatal Ward, and Neonatal Intensive Care. On the BB unit, we have 26 care beds, of which 8 beds are for pregnant women with complications and 18 beds are for women who have given birth with complications or whose children are cared for in the neonatal ward. Close to the unit is a follow-up clinic and a breastfeeding clinic. In autumn 2023, we launched the "BB at Home" program.

Job Description

We are looking for nurses for our neonatal unit!

On the neonatal unit, midwives, pediatric nurses, nurses, nursing assistants, and doctors work together around the patient. We are divided into teams consisting of a midwife/nurse and a nursing assistant who are jointly responsible for their patients. On the unit, we work with both complicated and normal processes related to pregnancy and postnatal care. We also care for patients scheduled for planned cesarean sections and pregnant women starting labor induction.

In your role as a nurse, you work with the newly delivered woman, the newborn child, and the new family, focusing on breastfeeding support and care for both parent and child with the goal of providing the best care and start for the entire family.

With us, you are offered an interesting and stimulating job where you have good opportunities for further development within obstetrics. As a new colleague, you will receive an individually adapted introduction. Your development is important to us, and we therefore offer continuous training. We have a follow-up clinic; if you have specialist competence relevant to the assignment, working at the clinic may become an option.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse with the right to practice in Swedish healthcare. Proficiency in Swedish corresponding to at least level C1 according to the Council of Europe scale is a requirement. It is an advantage if you have work experience in women's or pediatric healthcare.

We are looking for you who can contribute energy and joy to our unit and who have a great interest in development, learning, and women's healthcare. You see the value of good cooperation and contribute to this yourself by sharing your knowledge and experiences. Your commitment and positive attitude contribute to a good work climate, where we all help each other and cooperate to achieve the best care quality for our patients. Changes often arise in our daily work; dealing with these and adapting to a new situation requires skills such as overview, planning, and structure. Great importance is attached to personal suitability.
