Make a difference. Every day.

We at the Department of Child and Adolescent Medicine are currently developing our operations. Would you like to be part of our forward-looking team? Apply to us today!

We care for children of all ages who need highly specialized care, primarily for neurological, orthopedic, pulmonary, and metabolic diseases as well as injuries. In addition, we perform highly specialized investigations and provide intermediate care for the most severely ill children. We have recently been commissioned to provide national specialized care in several different areas. This gives you the opportunity to increase your competence in caring for children in areas such as severe chronic lung diseases and epilepsy surgery investigations. At the same time, we are expanding our department to be able to admit children with other diagnoses who need emergency care.

Every child cared for on the ward has a unique clinical picture and therefore needs individual solutions and treatments. We provide both emergency and planned care at several different levels. As a nurse or pediatric nurse with us, you have great opportunities to develop within your profession and gain broad knowledge within our specialties.

To provide highly specialized care, cooperation between several different professions is of great importance. Nurses, nursing assistants, doctors, pharmacists, and administrators work on the ward. In addition, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dietitians, social workers, psychologists, medical secretaries, and play therapists are linked to the ward. The patient's unique needs determine which professions should be part of the team around the individual child and family. We have close cooperation between all professional groups and have an education-oriented culture and a pleasant workplace. We work child- and family-centered and follow the Nordic Association for Sick Children's Needs (NOBAB) standard and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
