Do you want to become part of Region Jämtland Härjedalen – a region you look forward to and grow in? Here, you contribute to development and growth throughout the county, working to offer the best possible service, care, and support for everyone who lives in or visits the region.

We offer a work environment characterized by collaboration, participation, and engagement, where both breadth and specialized expertise are valued. Here, you have the opportunity to develop in your role, whether you are new to the profession or have extensive experience.

Primary care within Region Jämtland Härjedalen is organized into 4 primary care areas, and since January 2022, primary care and ambulance services have been integrated under "good and close care." Each primary care area is an economic unit led by a unit manager. Primary care is also responsible for the region's healthcare advice service, youth clinic, and the primary care ward Näva, all of which are grant-funded. Within the primary care area, there is a good research climate, and it holds the status of a university hospital unit. Our R&D unit can provide support and scientific supervision, primarily in collaboration with Umeå University.

Lits Health Centre is a well-functioning health centre and workplace, with good routines and collaboration mixed with a large portion of innovation. We collaborate with all our colleagues across different professional categories to create good care and provide favorable conditions for patients. We currently have just over 3,750 registered patients, approximately 17 employees, and two unit managers in co-leadership. Our medical group consists of 3 specialists in general practice, 2 ST-doctors, one locum doctor, and one locum assistant doctor. The team also includes district nurses, nurses, nursing assistants, and medical secretaries. Additionally, there is a psychosocial unit with a psychologist, counselor, and psychotherapist shared with Lugnvik, as well as a rehab coordinator, physiotherapist, and occupational therapist. The Mother and Child Health Centre is located in the same building. We are responsible for two SÄBO (supported living for people with disabilities).

Our health centre is located approximately 2 miles outside the city center, near the Indalsälven river, with opportunities for nice running routes, cycling trips, or walks. We have high ceilings, a good atmosphere where we help each other, and we want to create a good work climate together. We want to stay at the forefront and continuously develop.

We warmly welcome you to join us!

RESPONSIBILITIES

Primary care is in the midst of a transition towards close care, which means, among other things, responsibility for fewer patients in favor of increased responsibility for our most vulnerable elderly. We work based on the concept of extended primary care; this approach also means increased opportunities for home visits, thereby being able to convey security to the patients who need it most.

The role of a specialist in general practice involves responsibility for a geographical area, including clinic visits, emergency visits, home visits, qualified phone consultations, and in-depth medication reviews. We have a doctor's meeting with a joint referral review once a week, and in addition to that, time is allocated for development work. Occasional on-call duties are included in the job.

We are responsible for four SÄBOs, including short-term places, and have a well-functioning collaboration with the municipality's district nurses in home healthcare. Within the framework of your employment, there is an opportunity for side assignments within SÄBO, MVC (Mother and Child Health Centre), and BVC (Child Health Centre). Supervision of candidates and training doctors is included in the work. Given that primary care has the status of a university hospital unit, the position includes teaching, supervision, and education of medical students at Umeå University.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for a curious and interested specialist doctor in general practice who is interested in primary care and wants to develop our health centre together with us. Personal research and research supervision are meritorious but not a formal requirement for the position.

We see that you are, as mentioned before, genuinely interested in primary care, self-motivated, take responsibility, and want to contribute to a good atmosphere in the work group.

Personal suitability is given great weight.

Employment type: Permanent.
Duration: Permanent, start date: By agreement.

In Region Jämtland Härjedalen, our work is permeated by our core values: we create value for those we serve, act with drive, and strive to always be perceived as reliable. Here, you have the opportunity to work in an organization where these values shape everyday life and where your work truly makes a difference.

As an employee, you have access to a wide range of benefits through our benefits portal. We care about your health and offer fitness subsidies or fitness hours. At Östersund Hospital, you can also train for free at the Zefyren gym and participate in instructor-led sessions.

Selection and appointment may take place continuously during the advertising period, so we would appreciate it if you submit your application as soon as possible.

We have an established recruitment process and therefore kindly but firmly decline contact with advertising salespeople or other sellers of recruitment services.
