Vacant job

Are you passionate about working with children and young people in need of emergency care, and are you a trained pediatric nurse or a registered nurse? Then we are looking for you!

Your Workplace

The Pediatric Clinic is sometimes referred to as the "Little Hospital" within the larger hospital complex. This is because our operations cover most of the various specialties within healthcare, including medicine, surgery, orthopedics, oncology, emergency care, and neonatal care. This highlights the extensive and broad experience and knowledge we offer to both patients and employees. At the Emergency Department for Children and Young People in Karlstad, we care for children and adolescents up to 18 years of age.

With the support of experienced colleagues, you will receive an individually tailored introduction to the workplace, as a good working environment and patient safety are of utmost importance to us. The Children and Young People's Emergency Department is open to the possibility of combining positions between units.

The Pediatric Emergency Department operates 24/7, with shifts covering days, evenings, and nights.

Your Responsibilities

As a nurse, you work in a team alongside pediatric assistant nurses, pediatricians, surgeons, and orthopedic surgeons. Together, you will make early assessments of children seeking emergency care. As a nurse, you will work independently using standardized procedures.

Your tasks include prioritizing children based on medical needs and performing individually tailored nursing and medical interventions. We always adapt our care to the best interests of the child and their family.

Your Skills and Competencies

We are looking for someone who wants to work with children and young people in need of emergency care. You are a registered pediatric nurse, or a registered nurse with at least one to two years of experience from emergency, inpatient, and/or pediatric care.

We prefer that you are good at building relationships, are communicative, positive, and enjoy taking on new challenges. You like a job that varies in pace and level of care, thrive in a team environment, but can also work independently. You plan your work well and can make decisions based on the information available. You have a heart that beats for children, young people, and their families.

We look forward to you becoming our colleague!
