Vacant job

Do you want to work in surgical care in a safe and warm team?

We are now looking for two nurses – one who is new to the profession and one with experience – for our ward.

About Ward 33

Ward 33 is part of the surgical clinic in Växjö. Our main focus is on patients within vascular surgery and urology, but we also receive patients within general surgery, trauma, breast, and endocrine surgery. We provide care both before and after surgery, and meet patients who come for acute or planned surgical procedures.

The ward has 12 care beds and close collaboration between nurses, assistant nurses, and doctors. The group is mixed – some are new to the profession, others have long experience. We learn from each other and help each other in everyday life.

Work Environment and Development

We have an open and warm work climate where well-being is important. We listen to each other, share knowledge, and have close contact with the manager who is accessible and supportive. Here you can be yourself and develop in your role.

In Region Kronoberg, we work to ensure that people in the county can live a safe and sustainable life. Every day we meet the people of Kronoberg in healthcare, in public transport, and in the work with the county's development. Ideas are valued here, there are great opportunities for development, and a work climate that is welcoming, open, and characterized by kindness.

Job Responsibilities

Working as a nurse on Ward 33 means a varied and developing job where you get to use both your medical competence and your ability to collaborate. You are an important part of the team around the patient and have an active role in the entire care process from admission to discharge.

The role includes among other things:

• Planning and coordinating care together with doctors, assistant nurses, and paramedics
• Preparing, providing care, and supporting patients before and after surgery
• Taking samples, inserting peripheral lines, and handling medical equipment such as central lines, medication pumps, and EDA
• Providing nursing care and medication
• Being an important contact for the patient's relatives, providing information, support, and security
• Documenting in the medical record systems Cosmic and Nova Ward
• Collaborating with other healthcare providers, for example other departments at the hospital and home care

We place great importance on listening to the patients. Both what they say and what their values show, for example via NEWS. You use both conversation and medical data to assess, support, and provide the right care at the right time.

Introduction and Support

To make you feel secure in your role, we offer a well-planned introduction, adapted to your needs and experiences. It contains different moments and regular reflections together with supervisors and managers. You become part of a warm and supportive group where it is perfectly okay to ask questions. There are no stupid questions here. We help each other, share knowledge, and ensure that you get a good start.

Opportunities for Further Development

For those interested in developing care, there are good opportunities to influence. You can contribute ideas, take responsibility for improvement areas, and be involved in the development work on the ward. Here you get to help shape the future of surgical care.

For those who want to develop further, there is an opportunity for further education to become a specialist nurse in surgery, as well as courses in our special areas of vascular surgery and urology.

Requirements and Qualifications

You are a licensed nurse who thrives working in a team and contributing to a good work climate. You want to do your best for the patients and communicate clearly and listen attentively to both patients, relatives, and colleagues. You have the ability to handle stress, especially in acute situations, and can prioritize even when the pace changes.
