Curious about psychiatry? Do you want to be part of a flexible and person-centered operation? The Psychiatric Clinic offers rewarding and exciting clinical work, breadth and depth of expertise, and many different career paths for all professional groups. We are now looking for a registered nurse for our inpatient care department s-81 with a focus on affective disorders, planned and acute eating disorder care, planned admissions, and SI - Voluntary Admission. Our Offer The Psychiatric Clinic in Linköping is a university clinic with many different operations. The clinic consists of outpatient and inpatient care, a detoxification unit, and an acute unit. In addition, we have mobile services; mobile outpatient team and prehospital acute psychiatric mobility (psychiatric ambulance). You will find our operations in the newly built Tinnerbäckshuset on the hospital grounds. Our nurses want to develop, and the clinic has therefore invested in strengthened nursing competence. In recent years, we have allowed our nurses to take responsibility and lead the development of nursing care and work to make the latest research understandable and applicable in our clinical everyday life. For development both in daily work and long-term, we have multiple forums for reflection, profession-specific professional meetings, mentoring, and daily debriefing after shifts. As a registered nurse, there are many opportunities to develop and build a career within the clinic. As an employee, you are offered both internal and external training. As a registered nurse, you have the opportunity through your employer to receive paid further education to become a psychiatric clinical nurse specialist, with an additional salary increase after completing the education. As a new registered nurse, you are offered personally adapted introduction and mentorship by an experienced nurse for as long as needed. We offer accessible leadership and you will have support from your closest manager who is easily accessible in the department. We encourage you to read about our career ladder for nurses and your benefits with us; here you will also find information about salary and compensation regulations. Job Description As a registered nurse, you have a central and leadership role in the department, where you are responsible for daily tasks and for leading the nursing work. In addition to main tasks such as medication management, participation in rounds, reporting, and social planning in collaboration with external actors, a large part of the work focuses on supporting and working closely with patients in their individual nursing care needs. The length of stays in our department varies, which means the work consists of everything from acute care to planned admissions. Patients primarily have psychiatric issues, but somatic comorbidities are common, which means that medical technical procedures are part of daily work. The work is creative; we work closely with patients and base our approach on their resources and abilities. For the past couple of years, we have been working from a recovery-oriented approach, and we see how care has moved from a more traditional approach to being driven by increasingly flexible and person-centered care where the patient's experience and needs are always our starting point. This in turn makes daily work more meaningful and developmental. With us, you become part of a multiprofessional and highly engaged team where you as a nurse work closely with doctors, nurses, social workers, and occupational therapists. We value a good work environment with focus on respect, safety, and community. We continuously work to create a safe and permissive work environment where communication is the focus. About You We are looking for you who are a licensed registered nurse. Experience in psychiatric care and/or a clinical nurse specialist degree is considered a merit, but we also encourage you without psychiatric experience to apply. With the right curiosity and a desire to do the best for the patient, you will develop and learn together with us! As a new registered nurse, you are offered personally adapted introduction and mentorship by an experienced nurse for as long as needed. We offer accessible leadership and you will have support from your closest manager who is easily accessible in the department. We are looking for you who have the ability to see both the patient's needs and resources. You are driven by a person-centered approach and value flexibility and creativity in nursing care. You thrive in an environment where you get the opportunity to use and develop your personal qualities and resources, while contributing to the continuous development of our operations.
