RESPONSIBILITIES

We are now looking for three nursing assistants for permanent positions. One of the nursing assistant positions will also include a small part of managerial support duties.

The team also works closely with social workers and pharmacists to provide a holistic perspective.

The activity offers you a varied, stimulating, and educational job where you are given the opportunity for personal development and education. Since development is important to us, we would appreciate it if you were engaged in the ward's continued development work. As a new employee, you will receive an individually adapted introduction based on your existing competence. Together with an experienced colleague, clinical teacher, nursing manager, and unit manager, you will be guided into your new work. As we value our employees' competence development, we offer you a number of training days with in-depth lectures in various areas during your employment. As an employer, we offer you flexible hours and a wellness allowance!
