We are constantly working to develop our profession and our working methods at the hospital, and we are looking for you who want to be part of this important work.

Job Description

We have a large operation within the heart department. The assignment covers both inpatient and outpatient care. Work in other areas of operation may also become relevant.

Tasks in inpatient care include, for example, assessments and treatments, fitting of assistive devices, designing training programs, and providing information to patients and relatives.

In our outpatient cardiac rehabilitation, you will meet patients who have had a heart attack, patients with angina pectoris, patients with heart failure, and patients who have undergone coronary artery bypass surgery. You perform assessments and tests, instruct and give individualized and adapted training advice, lead individual and group training, and evaluate the patient's function after rehabilitation. You also teach patients and relatives in the heart school.

Weekend duty and teaching students in practice-based education are included in the assignment.
