Vacant job

Helping people achieve better health is one of the most important missions one can have. At Södra Älvsborg Hospital (SÄS), we are 3,700 employees with 120 different professions who contribute to this every day. Here, you will find security, career opportunities, a forward-looking spirit, and a strong sense of community.

We want to give you the best possible start in your new professional life as a nurse and lay the foundation for your future development. Therefore, we offer you a unique introduction and the opportunity to gradually increase your responsibilities with security.

SÄS's introduction program for newly graduated nurses is based on the Region Västra Götaland's enhanced professional introduction, the Clinical Base Year. However, at SÄS, we are unique in that our introduction is also built on the following five basic conditions:

• Independent work with your own professional responsibility as a licensed nurse
• Adapted tasks and workload
• Support from an experienced nurse
• Education and clinical training
• Reflection

The SÄS introduction program for newly graduated nurses lasts for one year and begins with a 12-week introduction schedule. The introduction schedule means that you share your shifts with an experienced nurse. You perform independent tasks based on your individual development plan, with tasks and workload adapted to you. This gives you the opportunity to gradually ramp up and grow into your new role. During each work shift, we ensure that there is a designated experienced colleague you can turn to for questions and support. At the end of your 12 weeks with the introduction schedule, an assessment is made regarding the need for continued support based on your individual development.

For the remainder of your first year, you work independently in your care unit. During this period, you have recurring mentoring sessions with an experienced nurse who supports your professional development. Parallel to your clinical work, you participate in an education program together with other newly graduated nurses at SÄS. The education program accounts for 15% of your working hours; read more about the content of the education program here (#).

After one year, you have completed your introduction and acquired relevant knowledge and necessary skills, allowing you to feel secure in your continued professional practice as a nurse in your care unit.
