Göteborgs Stad, Göteborg, Švédsko

About the job Would you like to work with palliative care in the home? Would you like to make a difference for our patients and their loved ones together with us? We are looking for someone who wants to be part of developing palliative care in Gothenburg City. We in the Palliative Care Competence Team (KPV) are a team within municipal health and care services and consist, in addition to nurses, of an occupational therapist and a physiotherapist. We work closely together in the team and base our work on a palliative approach built on four cornerstones: communication and relationships, teamwork, symptom relief, and support for loved ones. All to create the highest possible quality of life during the time remaining for our patients. As a nurse with us, you will assess and treat patients in their homes based on each individual's circumstances and needs. Patients can be of varying ages and have limited time left to live. What all our patients have in common is that they need the expertise that a palliative-focused team can provide. In addition to contributing to good care for our patients, part of your work will be to support loved ones. You will be offered a developmental role in an exciting organization. At our workplace, we care about each other and work together to provide good and safe care. We want you to have a good work environment with balance between work and leisure. If you feel good at work, you also do a better job and ultimately it leads to better treatment and service for those we exist for. With us, there are opportunities to influence and have a say, both in big and small matters. There are also great opportunities for personal development through training, different areas of responsibility, and special assignments. When we strive together to develop the operation, it creates participation and engagement. The work is currently scheduled for day, evening, and weekend shifts. We operate from shared facilities at Bror Nilssons Gata 5 on Lindholmen. About you We are looking for you who are a licensed nurse. If you have specialist training as a district nurse, elderly care nurse, or in palliative care, that is a merit. We would appreciate it if you have experience working as a nurse, in home health care, and in palliative care. Since we work across all of Hisingen, a B driving license and good driving skills are required. In this position, you will work independently to a large extent, which means you need to be confident in meeting patients on your own and making assessments. However, there are always colleagues who can support you in your work. We therefore see it as important that you can collaborate with your colleagues to provide our patients with the best possible care. As you will meet seriously ill patients and their loved ones, it requires you to be empathetic and responsive. You listen and create understanding for the people you meet in your professional role in order to meet their needs. For us, it is also important that you are a responsible colleague who understands the importance of your work and how it affects others, and who cares about your colleagues. You are structured in your work approach and use your time efficiently. Does this sound like a job for you? We warmly welcome your application!
