About the workplace

Every day, we meet elderly people, individuals with disabilities, and people in vulnerable life situations with the goal of creating safety, independence, and quality of life.

As a Responsible Nurse (MAS) and Quality Developer, you will have the opportunity to contribute to safe and secure care in operations that make a real difference for many people. Here, care as a competence is combined with systematic quality and patient safety work where the individual's needs are always at the center.

We offer you:

• a meaningful job in a values-driven organization

Who are you?

To thrive and succeed in the role, we believe you are a person who combines high professional integrity with a genuine commitment to quality and patient safety.

You easily build trusting relationships and collaborate well with people in different roles and operations. You are pedagogical and confident in supporting, guiding, and challenging managers and operations in their development work.
