Vacant job

Together, we are developing Sahlgrenska University Hospital for a sustainable future. We are transforming healthcare with the goal of becoming Europe's leading university hospital by 2032. Together with our patients, we work for quality, accessibility, patient safety, research, education, and innovation within an integrated healthcare system in the Region of Västra Götaland. Our vision and goals aim for care of the highest quality, where the patient is always at the center. We provide local and regional healthcare, as well as highly specialized care to patients across the country and abroad. Our employees are our strength, contributing to knowledge exchange nationally and internationally. With digital tools and new ways of working, we can simplify life at the hospital and offer modern, accessible, and efficient care of the highest quality.

Here you have a unique opportunity to develop care for people with rare health conditions at all levels – local, regional, national, and international. At CSD West, you will become a key person in improving care processes and contributing to more cohesive and sustainable structures in healthcare. We are primarily looking for a nurse, but welcome other healthcare professionals with relevant competence.

About Us

The Centre for Rare Diagnoses (CSD) exists in every healthcare region and functions as a competence and support unit without direct patient care responsibilities. Both healthcare professionals, patients, relatives, and various societal actors can turn to CSD. The mission is to ensure that people with rare health conditions of all ages have access to adequate investigation and care interventions.

CSD West is part of the Clinical Genetics and Genomics (KGG) business area at Sahlgrenska University Hospital. You will be part of a team of five colleagues (doctors, nurses, and informants) who plan, implement, and follow up on care-developing projects and processes, support research activities, and contribute to implementing new knowledge into the care organization. Together with colleagues, you will receive and follow up on cases coming through CSD's guidance function, register them in quality registers, and handle administrative tasks related to CSD's mission.

The team identifies, supports, highlights, and establishes multidisciplinary expert teams regarding various rare diagnosis groups. The work involves collaboration with regional and national program areas for rare diseases, as well as various care providers, including within national highly specialized care and European Reference Networks (ERN).

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for a registered nurse, but welcome applicants with other relevant healthcare professions. You should have good knowledge of the structure of healthcare and experience working with complex disease conditions and care flows. You are confident in writing structured reports, expressing yourself in formal contexts, and have experience in business or care development, preferably in a project format. You use digital tools in both clinical work and development work. It is an advantage if you have experience in adult healthcare, in-depth knowledge of healthcare management and governance, experience with rare diagnoses, or highly specialized care.

As a person, you are driven, curious, and enjoy influencing and improving. You are structured and independent, but also a clear team player who builds good relationships both within and outside your own operations. You are accustomed to working in projects, taking responsibility from idea to implementation and follow-up, and are comfortable teaching and lecturing to different target groups. Personal suitability is of great importance.

We offer an stimulating and meaningful assignment where you can contribute to improved care for people with rare health conditions, in close collaboration with engaged colleagues, expert teams, and national networks, as well as good opportunities for competence development in the field.

Interviews will be held at the end of August.

We warmly welcome your application!
