Welcome as a dietitian with us! Do you want to work with children and adolescents in a stimulating environment together with engaged colleagues? Then you should apply to us!
The Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine unit conducts broad pediatric activities with strong expertise in many subspecialty areas. The unit has regional responsibility for inpatient care for children and adolescents and provides highly specialized care within neonatology. Inpatient care is conducted on a neonatal ward for newborns and a pediatric care ward (0-18 years). We have a daycare for children as well as a mobile pediatric team. Outpatient activities are conducted at a subspecialty clinic at USÖ and at three general pediatric clinics (Örebro, Karlskoga, and Lindesberg). The Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine unit has a paramedical team to which the dietitians belong, along with social workers, psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapist, teachers, and play therapists.
We offer varied work and a challenging and stimulating work environment. With us, you will receive orientation, relevant continuing education, research opportunities, support, and mentoring from experienced colleagues. There is an opportunity for remote work.
Job Responsibilities
Working as a dietitian with us involves broad and interesting work with assignments in both ward and outpatient settings. You will join a group of dietitians who together work with children and adolescents with various medical conditions, such as diabetes, food allergies, oncology, obesity, and growth problems. Area responsibilities are distributed among the dietitians, but we collaborate and cover for each other as needed. You will be responsible for nutritional treatment of children and meet families individually and in groups, and also participate in training healthcare staff. We often work in teams around the child and joint visits with other professional categories are common.
We are proud of our dietitian services and we look forward to welcoming you as a dietitian with us!
