About the Workplace

The 11 region-run primary care centers and the primary care centers' emergency clinics in Västmanland are operated as an intrapreneurship with a board and Region Västmanland as the owner.

Närvården Hemdal is a well-established and relatively large primary care center in Västerås, located at entrance 19 on the hospital grounds. We are responsible for just over 13,200 registered patients, and our unit includes doctor and district nurse clinics, mother and child health care, a rehabilitation unit with physiotherapists and occupational therapists, as well as a psychosocial team with a counselor, psychologist, and nurse. The primary care center focuses on daring to step into new ways of thinking to adapt care. We want to develop, and there are great opportunities to influence and be part of the change.

We want our employees to thrive, feel good, and develop with us at Närvården Hemdal, which is why we strive to offer secure employment with good benefits and fair conditions. Our occupational pension schemes and the opportunity to exchange salary for pension are particularly advantageous.
