Psychiatric Clinic Mälarsjukhuset, Eskilstuna

About Us

The Psychosis Department is an acute psychiatric ward with 13 beds, primarily intended for the care of individuals suffering from psychosis. Our care is designed from a holistic perspective, taking into account the individual's specific needs and overall life situation. On the ward, we provide pharmacological treatment, Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), therapeutic conversations, and nursing care based on person-centered care. We also consider the individual's social and economic situation, supported by a healthcare social worker. A psychologist is also available for support through psychiatric outpatient care.

We are a team of approximately 25 staff members, consisting of nurses, care assistants, doctors, healthcare social workers, and medical secretaries. You will work in care teams with the goal of providing excellent nursing care to each unique individual. On the Psychosis Department, we constantly strive to practice and develop person-centered care, which we hope you will want to be a part of.

We have begun centralizing LRV (Long-term Residential Care) in Sörmland to the Psychosis Department at Mälarsjukhuset for patients in the discharge phase from Karsudden Forensic Psychiatry.

Your Responsibilities

Typical nursing duties included in the care work are, for example, dispensing/distributing medication and technical nursing tasks such as blood sampling, inserting IVs, wound care, catheterization (KAD), handling ECGs, and bladder scanners.
