About the position and about us

Working as a nurse on an orthopedic ward is varied and exciting. Here you meet patients with varying care needs.

Orthopedics covers the treatment of fractures and other injuries and pain conditions of the musculoskeletal system. At the Orthopedic Clinic, we handle acute trauma around the clock, but we also perform planned surgeries such as hip and knee replacements. Here we work in a cross-professional team together with doctors, assistant nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, etc., and share joint responsibility for our patients.

The positions advertised are one day/evening shift and one night shift. You specify in the application process which of the positions you are interested in applying for.

We offer you

• Individually adapted introduction
• Opportunity for specialist education within orthopedics
• Area of responsibility that you are passionate about and an opportunity to join our different sections
• Internal training
• Opportunity for innovative thinking towards the future of orthopedics
• Close and engaged leadership

As part of our major initiative, we at the Orthopedics department offer our nurses a specialist education as an orthopedic nurse and a 15 ECTS course in orthopedics in Malmö.

This is you

You who apply are a registered nurse, interested in orthopedics, and curious about future healthcare. You want to help develop orthopedics forward to meet the needs we are faced with.

Do you like to work independently but also in a team with a focus on the patient's best interest? That is good, because we are looking for nurses with a good ability to create security, the courage to be the patient's spokesperson, and sensitivity to their needs. We place great emphasis on personal suitability.

If you would like to come and meet us and see our workplace, you can contact our department manager, Malin Malmgren. See contact details further down.
