We are looking for

We are looking for a registered nurse. It is an advantage if you have completed a course in Infectious Disease Care (15.60 credits), have knowledge of the systems Cosmic and Life Care, and have experience from infectious disease care and ward work.

We place great emphasis on your personal qualities. To thrive and succeed in this role, we see that you have good judgment and can make well-founded decisions, even in complex situations.

As a nurse on the infectious disease ward, you are responsible for the care of patients with varying monitoring needs, together with your nursing assistants. Our patients have fluctuating care needs, which creates a varied work pace with sometimes rapid changes in patients' conditions. No two days are alike here. As a nurse, you are responsible for leading and distributing the work within the team, and together with your colleagues, you ensure a good working environment.

You will learn a great deal about both contagious and non-contagious infectious diseases. We care for patients with common illnesses such as pneumonia and urinary tract infections, but also patients with hepatitis, malaria, heart valve infections, and infections of the skeleton and brain. You will become an expert in transmission routes and care hygiene, and you will meet patients from all over the world.
