In Region Kronoberg, we work to ensure that people in the county can live a safe and sustainable life. Every day, we meet the residents of Kronoberg in healthcare, public transport, and in the work with the county's development. Here, ideas are valued, there are great opportunities for development, and a welcoming, open, and kindness-driven work climate.
Do you want to help shape healthcare for our elderly?
Within the clinic, we focus on orthogeriatrics, but geriatric care is about the whole person. In our work, we strive in various ways to contribute to the patient being able to maintain their functions for as long as possible.
We work in teams to meet the specific needs of elderly patients. The teams consist of doctors, nurses, assistant nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dietitians, and secretaries. All professional categories assess the patient's condition, and a summary is made at the team conference, where an individual plan is created. There is close cooperation with the municipality and primary care.
The acute geriatrics unit has a care ward and an osteoporosis clinic with great development opportunities. Our vision for the clinic is to create virtual care places in collaboration with the Elderly Health project in Kronoberg.
We have a good work climate with great commitment. We are looking for a junior doctor with great commitment who wants to grow and develop with us.
