Academic Children's Hospital – Small hearts need great care!

We are now seeking dedicated nurses and midwives for our neonatal department at Academic Children's Hospital. Here, all the competence a sick child might need is housed in an environment characterized by good cooperation, respect, and care.

Our Operations

The Intensive Care Unit for Newborns provides highly specialized intensive care, intermediate care, and neonatal surgery for the region's smallest and/or sickest newborns. On our neonatal ward, newborns with varying care needs are treated – from relatively stable children who need extra support and monitoring, to very ill children requiring advanced intensive care.

Your Role

The work always centers on the child and the family. You will work with neonatal care in an environment where we take care of the children, their families, and each other. We believe we do a much better job together.

Your Qualifications

We are looking for you who are a basic registered nurse, specialist registered nurse, or midwife, and who want a professional challenge by working with neonatal care.

Your Competence

• You strive to actively work with the six core competencies for nurses to achieve safe care.
• We place great importance on understanding the work with child- and family-centered care.
• As we conduct extensive healthcare development and research, we expect you to stay updated and well-read regarding evidence and research.
• You need to be stable and controlled in acute situations as our small patients' conditions can change rapidly.
• We work in teams around the child and the family, thus requiring good collaboration skills.

What We Offer

We offer you a permanent position with rotation between days, evenings, nights, and weekends in an attractive point model that generates reduced working hours. From autumn, we will work with a competency ladder that clarifies your current competency level and what you need to work on to progress in your development.

The research conducted here is world-class, and opportunities to contribute to further development arise constantly. We have a comprehensive induction program for all nurses starting with us. The induction is tailored to individual needs, and you always have our team of education coordinators and your direct manager as support. After completing the introduction, you will be assigned a mentor.

Start date by agreement. Extracts from the Police's suspicion and criminal records will be taken prior to appointment.

Region Uppsala values the qualities that equal gender distribution and diversity bring to the operations and welcomes applicants of all genders and with different birth backgrounds, functionalities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala mobilizes all permanent staff based on the needs of the total defense. This means no obligations for the individual employee in peacetime, but is solely a planning measure.

Before a decision on employment, a check of the suspicion and criminal records is conducted for all job seekers who in the sought employment may come to work within psychiatric care, habilitation, care for children and youth, or compulsory care of addicts, areas covered by facultative record extracts. This thus applies to all who will work close to patients, even if the tasks at present are not intended to primarily contain work with the aforementioned patient groups.

This recruitment is conducted entirely through Region Uppsala's efforts, and we decline phone calls from recruitment agencies and ad sales.
