About this role
We are looking for a nurse with experience in child and adolescent psychiatry who wants to work in an organization that addresses the needs of the entire family.
With us, you will become part of a team with clear working methods and excellent opportunities for development. We welcome you to submit your application today!
The Stockholm Center for Eating Disorders (SCÄ) is one of the largest specialist clinics in the world for patients with eating disorders and receives patients of all ages. We have a well-developed operation with digital care, outpatient care, intensive outpatient care, day care, round-the-clock care, and nationally specialized care for both adults, children, and adolescents. Today, we have nearly 280 employees. Our outpatient and day care services are located in Södermalm, and our round-the-clock care is at Danderyd Hospital.
The round-the-clock care for children and adolescents accommodates 12 families with a treatment duration of 6-10 weeks. Family work plays a central role in the treatment, where parents are empowered in their parenting role and gain increased knowledge about the eating disorder. Parents are present with their children throughout the treatment period.

Do you want to work with and learn more about patients with eating disorders? We offer you, as a licensed nurse, a stimulating and pleasant workplace where the patient is at the center. You will receive training in our treatment methods as well as regular supervision. We are a dedicated team with high competence, and we strive to provide patients with the best care. We aim to create an open and enjoyable work environment with close collaboration between our different units. Each week, families have the opportunity to meet with a Participation Coordinator, and we have a close collaboration with the patient association Frisk och Fri. Together with us, you will have the opportunity to grow, thrive, and continue to develop our eating disorder care.
Job Responsibilities:
As a nurse with us, you will have a leadership role where you, together with the nursing team, plan and carry out treatment and nursing measures for our patients. Other responsibilities for you as a nurse include medication administration, somatic examinations, and delegations.
The tasks may also include meal support, self-registration, and anxiety management aimed at empowering patients who require individual adjustments related to any psychiatric comorbidity.
In your role, you will be part of a closely-knit team, collaborating with nurses, nursing assistants, psychiatrists, dietitians, and social workers. Together, we use evidence-based methods, such as FBT (Family-Based Treatment), to provide each family with the tools they need for sustainable change.
