Vacant job

The Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Clinic (BUP) in Halmstad is now looking for a registered nurse with an interest in working with children and adolescents, and who is curious about or has experience in child psychiatry. The nursing team consists of 6 nurses, and we offer you a varied and developing role.

Job Responsibilities

At the BUP clinic in Halmstad, you will primarily work with medication follow-ups, information, and counseling, both via 1177, by phone, and through patient visits.

You will also collaborate closely with our doctors and other staff. We hold regular team conferences where there is an opportunity to discuss cases and thereby access the expertise of other professional categories. It is important to us that you feel secure in your work, and we continuously work on our introduction program where you have your own mentor to support you. Eventually, you will be expected to plan telephone and medication follow-ups independently, but this will be done in consultation with your mentor and the unit manager.

Other tasks that may be included in the position include, for example, leading parent education or other training for our patients and their relatives according to the needs of the operations. Collaboration with schools, social services, and other authorities is also an important part of the work.
