You can easily get there by bike, train, or car. Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (BUP) has the mission to provide specialized child and adolescent psychiatric care for patients up to 18 years old. In Northwest Skåne, there are outpatient clinics in Helsingborg, Ängelholm, and Landskrona. Our shared intermediate care includes intermediate care for children ages 6 to 18, a family unit for ages 0 to 18, a small eating disorder team, and infant services for patients between 0 and 6 years old.

At the Intermediate Care unit, curators, family therapists, psychologists, medical secretaries, nurses, physicians, junior physicians, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists work together. In total, we are approximately 30 employees at BUP in Skåne and have been an accredited university care unit for several years, which means we have close collaboration with the Medical Faculty at Lund University in both research and education. Academic work permeates our operations. We value interest and experience in research and education in the recruitment of all our positions. We collaborate with municipalities in our catchment area to work together with patients and families to achieve the best possible care for our patients. 2 position(s).
