Nurses to Geriatrics Ward C8 at Södertälje Hospital

Ward C8 is a geriatric ward with a special focus on cognitive impairment and general palliative care. The department has just moved into newly built premises that offer unique conditions – here you will have the opportunity to help build the future of geriatrics.

We are now looking for you who are interested in cognitive diseases!

The ward works to ensure that all employees are involved in development processes, and we want to be at the forefront of how we approach new ways of working regarding patient treatment. This means opportunities for you to influence how we work in the future, which we hope you will experience as a contributing factor to a good working environment.

On the ward, we work with continuous competence development that goes hand in hand with your personal development plan, and we apply Region Stockholm's competence ladders for nurses in clinical care. Great focus is placed, among other things, on nurses as leaders in daily nursing work and co-leadership. If you are a recent graduate, we offer you a secure start to your career through introduction and supervision, not only on the ward but you will also participate in our new graduate program, which combines skills training, lectures, and group discussions. At our ward, all nurses receive a mentor.

In your role as a nurse, you are responsible for your care team and lead the nursing care of the patients. During a work shift, you have regular follow-ups with the rest of the team, and you have a special focus on the patient's condition, planning, and treatment. You are expected to have a person-centered approach and to assume that every patient has unique needs and conditions, where the patient's relatives are also an important piece of the puzzle and a resource. Influence, participation, and joy in work are key words for your daily work, and we see patient safety, collaboration, and communication as important parts.
