Närhälsan offers high-quality primary care close to home. With hundreds of clinics in Västra Götaland, we are close to residents throughout their lives and make a difference to their health. We care for you and offer development throughout your entire career.

About Us

Närhälsan Lövgärdet Health Centre and Child Health Centre is a well-established and stable operation in the Angered district with approximately 9,000 registered residents and just over 20 employees. The health centre is beautifully located right next to the Vättlefjäll Nature Reserve and Surtesjön. The district is home to residents from all over the world. We work based on our values, where the equal value of all people is in focus, rather than cultural and linguistic challenges.

Through continuous quality work, we have succeeded in making patients feel welcome, well-treated, and satisfied with the care we provide. In patient surveys, the health centre has been ranked among the ten best in the Region of Västra Götaland for several years. We have created a pleasant atmosphere at the workplace that everyone, regardless of profession, actively contributes to and wants to keep alive. The Child Health Centre is part of a family centre and works to promote health in close proximity to several other actors.

As an employee at Närhälsan, you are offered various forms of development opportunities, for example through internal training and mentorship programs.

About the Role

Your duties at the health centre span a broad field of work and cover the area of general medicine where you meet patients of all ages and situations. You work to promote health, provide advice, and treat in primary care, both via telephone, home visits, and at the clinic.

The work involves both emergency and planned operations. Close cooperation takes place with your colleagues at the unit and cross-professionally in the team, but also together 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.

About You

You are a registered nurse. It is an advantage if you have experience from working in primary care and/or have completed a 7.5 ECTS supervisor education, but we also welcome newly graduated candidates.

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, sensitive, and have a desire to help others. We also believe that you enjoy teamwork and that collaborating with colleagues and other contacts is second nature to you. You can express yourself well both orally and in writing, and are an engaged and good listener both on the phone and during visits at the clinic. We would like you to have an interest in digitalization and operational development. We also expect you to live up to Närhälsan's core values: Reliable, Considerate, and Innovative.

Other Information

The position is a fixed-term contract for 12 months.

Interviews are held on a rolling basis.

We welcome your application!

About the Recruitment Process

Selection takes place in two steps. The first selection is made by recruiters in the HR department who invite candidates to a telephone interview. The hiring manager then makes a second selection of the 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 that we can understand the situation, why you acted as you did, and what the result was.

We warmly welcome your application!
