Our Operations
Department 85B1 is part of the neurology clinical area and works with acute stroke care for adult patients. With us, advanced acute care is combined with close patient care, teamwork, and continuous development.
The department has 14 care beds distributed across two care teams. In addition, we work with the acute stroke flow with our "Save the Brain" team where a registered nurse and a nursing assistant care for patients who come in with suspected stroke directly through the emergency department.
As a registered nurse with us, you will work closely with patients in the acute phase, with monitoring, treatment, and care that can make a big difference for the patient's recovery and future.
We work in interprofessional teams together with nursing assistants, physicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, dietitians, and administrative staff. Collaboration between different professions is an important part of our work and something many appreciate about us.
We also place great emphasis on work environment and development. Therefore, we have daily reflection sessions and work continuously to improve both work methods and care environment. The department also has several development and research projects in collaboration with Uppsala University.
Your Assignment
As a registered nurse on stroke unit 85B1, you will work with acute stroke care and patient care for adult patients.
You are responsible for the care process, administer medications, and lead the daily work together with the team around the patient. The work is varied and involves both acute situations and close patient contact.
You will receive an introduction tailored to your experience and a mentor for support during your first year with us.
Your Qualifications
We are looking for you who are a licensed registered nurse with a bachelor's degree.
It is a merit if you have experience in stroke care or acute care, but we also welcome you who are new to the profession and want to develop within neurology and acute care.

Your Competencies
We are looking for you who are responsible, collaboration-oriented, and confident in interactions with patients and colleagues.
You need to be able to prioritize and remain calm in work where the pace is sometimes high. At the same time, we believe you appreciate teamwork, development, and working closely with patients.
We value colleagues who contribute to a good work environment and a positive workplace culture.
What We Offer

As a registered nurse in inpatient care, you will also receive an inpatient care supplement of 2000 kronor per month on top of your base salary.

If you are a newly graduated registered nurse, the professional introduction "Clinical Development Year" is included as part of your introduction.

Region Uppsala war-allocates all permanent employees according to the needs of total defense. This means for the individual employee no obligations in peacetime but is solely a planning measure.
Before a decision on employment, a check of suspicion and burden registers is made for all job applicants who in the sought employment may work in psychiatric care, rehabilitation, care of children and young people, or compulsory care of substance abusers, areas covered by optional register excerpts. This thus applies to all who will work close to patients, even if the work tasks at present are not intended to mainly involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.
