Your Workplace Close Care Unit 95 currently has 14 care beds and we provide 24-hour care primarily for elderly patients with multiple conditions in our local area. We offer care in areas including medicine, orthopedics, surgery, and palliative care. This provides comprehensive patient care. The unit also receives day patients for services such as blood transfusions or other infusions during the day. We have developed a concept for our patients who often need care and can come directly to the unit for direct admission, so-called Näva-patients. We work in teams around the patient and also have the Close Care Team connected to the unit for direct admissions. The workplace has an attractive work environment and pleasant colleagues. You will have opportunities for individual schedule planning and different employment arrangements can be discussed. You will have a bonus system for mixed-duty service which means extra payment twice per year. Your Work Tasks As a nurse, you work in a team with nursing assistants, doctors, and occupational therapists. You are responsible for the patient's daily care and lead the work in the team. Various medical tasks are part of the work such as infusions, blood transfusions, and blood sampling, among others. Together with other links in the care chain, such as municipalities, we create high quality and security for patients and their families. Since the unit operates 24 hours a day, the work includes shifts during day, evening, night, and weekends. Your Knowledge and Competencies We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse. Experience from inpatient care is seen as a merit but not a requirement. You are responsible, solution-focused, and proactive. To thrive with us, you should be able to work both independently and as part of a team. Always having the patient's best interests in focus is self-evident for us. For us, it is important that the right person with the right competencies becomes part of our team, therefore great emphasis will be placed on personal suitability.
