Vacant job

Do you want to contribute to ensuring that people discharged from hospitals and short-term care facilities have a smooth transition home? We are now looking for nurses who want to help shape a new way of working. Our guiding principle is that a safe discharge home should be built on clear roles, realistic prerequisites, and shared responsibility – with a focus on those who need it most. Help us make a difference!

About the position

When a person leaves the hospital or a short-term stay, it is often one of life's most vulnerable transitions. At that moment, support needs to be as clear, secure, and coordinated as possible. Therefore, we want to develop our working methods to create a cohesive chain where we meet the person early, in a coordinated manner, and with a shared focus: the right support at the right time, in their own home. We want to create security for the individual and strengthen the quality of the entire care chain.

You will join a "Safe Discharge Home" team and collaborate with occupational therapists and social secretaries. The goal is to assess and plan for new or expanded interventions from healthcare and social services. You will contact the individual and/or their representative via phone or meeting at the ward. Together with the rest of the Safe Discharge Home team, group leader, and unit manager, you will develop working methods and approaches that will be used in care planning to contribute to knowledge, relationships, participation, and continuity for the individual.

Examples of tasks:

• develop working methods and approaches for the discharge process together with the team
• decide on, implement, and follow up on nursing care measures
• instruct and delegate health and medical care tasks to nursing staff
• maintain contact with and provide support to relatives
• document in various quality registers and operational systems
• participate in and drive continuous improvement and development of our operations

About the workplace

You are part of the Authority Operations and are based at Olof Palmes torg. The group will consist of a nurse and an occupational therapist, with close collaboration with social secretaries. You will also be present at the hospital and within the home care service.

You work from a salutogenic approach with a focus on participation and quality of life to see the individual's resources and create security in connection with discharge.

Furthermore, you are flexible and have the ability and willingness to find new solutions.
