REGION SKÅNE · Vollzeit

Region Skåne, Lund, Schweden

Make a difference. Every day. The Cardiac and Pulmonary Medicine (HLM) Clinical Unit at Skåne University Hospital (Sus) consists of four sections: heart failure and valve disease, arrhythmia, coronary artery disease, and pulmonary and allergy care. We provide highly specialized cardiac and pulmonary care at both our Lund and Malmö locations. The Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (HIA) is Sweden's largest center for treating acute cardiac disease and we deliver high-tech care. We offer opportunities for continuing education, professional development, and research for individual staff members. Our unit is characterized by employee-driven development where every team member plays a vital role in achieving our goal: Sweden's leading cardiac intensive care and interventional unit. We work process-oriented in groups to develop patient care, always collaborating with physicians, nurses, nursing assistants, physiotherapists, social workers, and medical secretaries as equal team members. Many of our staff have extensive experience in cardiac intensive care, and with their solid expertise, we are ready to welcome both experienced and newly graduated colleagues. After working with us, you'll be equally comfortable receiving a patient directly from an ambulance stretcher during an active heart attack as you will performing meticulous specialized care for a highly unstable heart failure patient awaiting transplantation. 3 position(s).
