About this role
Ambulance Healthcare Arjeplog is a rural station where we work around the clock, all year round, providing pre-hospital emergency medical care with the vital task of delivering care and support to patients of all ages. Are you looking for a varied job where your skills will be utilized and challenged? Do you want to develop both yourself and the organization? Then now is your chance to become part of our fantastic team!
We are seeking a licensed nurse with at least 3 years of continuous possession of a B driver's license. You should have good physical condition as heavy lifting is part of the job. Physical tests will be conducted before employment. Previous experience in emergency healthcare is considered meritorious.
We place great importance on personal characteristics. To thrive in this role, you should be adaptable to changing circumstances and able to adjust your perspective and approach. You take responsibility for your tasks, structure your work, and can work independently while valuing and recognizing the benefits of collaboration. As a person, you are confident, stable, have good self-awareness, and can adapt to different situations.
What You Will Do
In ambulance healthcare, you will encounter patients of all ages who have experienced acute illness or injury, either in their homes, outdoors, or at accident sites. Together with an ambulance caregiver or ambulance nurse, you form a team that is often first on the scene of serious illness or accident. As an ambulance nurse, you perform the initial assessment, provide treatment, and have the medical responsibility for deciding on care and treatment interventions.
Each intervention in ambulance healthcare involves unique situations and challenges where your help can be crucial and make a real difference. Ambulance healthcare is an independent unit within acute care, and in rural areas, it involves integration with primary care. The team works together and collaborates with other professionals such as emergency departments, municipalities, rescue services, and police. Arjeplog is Sweden's fourth-largest municipality by area and is one of four municipalities in Norrbotten where ambulance healthcare collaborates with police/mountain rescue during mountain rescue missions.
