Vacant job

Do you want to be part of an engaged and professional team, and make a difference for every patient – every day? Here, you will use your full competence in a dynamic environment characterized by respect, joy in work, and a forward-looking attitude. Together, we realize our vision, "Together – for the whole family's oral health".

Job Responsibilities

We offer a varied job as a dental hygienist assistant (dental nurse) that includes assisting, sterilization, and reception duties. Independent work with prophylaxis for child and adolescent patients is also part of the role. In your position, you meet patients of all ages, so it is important that you enjoy variety where no day is the same. A clear patient focus, good treatment, and high quality should characterize the experience with us. In your work, you take significant responsibility but are also part of the entire clinic's team of dental hygienists, dentists, and dental nurses. Together, we help our patients with their oral health and create quality of life.

About the Workplace

At Folktandvården Sala, there are currently 8 dentists, 3 dental hygienists, and 11 dental nurses. In modern and welcoming premises, we have jointly created conditions for teamwork beyond the ordinary. We are incredibly proud that so many child, adolescent, and adult patients from near and far have chosen us. Now, we hope that you, as a dental nurse, want to become another part of our team.

Good performance presupposes that you enjoy and feel well at work; therefore, we offer you among other things the following benefits:

• Individually designed introduction program to help you develop and become confident and secure in your professional role
• Opportunities for competence development through, for example, internal training
• Free training at Region Västmanland's fully equipped gym
• Health allowance, 3,000 SEK/year
