About this role
Make a difference. Every day.
Vårdcentralen Östermalm is located in the city center of Kristianstad, situated in charming older hospital buildings. It has excellent commuting options via train and bus, with Skåneexpressen lines 1, 3, and 4 stopping just outside the clinic. Kristianstad is set in a picturesque area with many opportunities for outdoor activities.
We run a practice with several distinct clinics for doctors, nurses, social workers, nursing assistants, psychologists, and dieticians. There are specialist clinics for asthma, diabetes, mental health, and geriatric care. We also have a very well-functioning child health clinic (BVC). In the same premises, there is an evening and weekend clinic operated jointly with the public health centers in the area, along with three private health care units in Bromölla and Kristianstad.
Here at the health center, we have about 34 employees in a pleasant working environment where we care for each other and our approximately 8,500 registered patients. We believe in the importance of professional development for all our professions. We also have five residences connected to our health center for which we are responsible for providing advice and support. We maintain a good collaboration with the municipality and their nurses, as well as with our own geriatric nurse.
JOB DESCRIPTION
We are now looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and outgoing nurse or district nurse to join us at Vårdcentralen Östermalm.
In this significant role, we offer you a varied and stimulating job. Your responsibilities will include making assessments, wound dressings, injections, and blood pressure checks. Triage via phone and at the clinic is also part of the role when our patients need to be directed to the right service or receive self-care advice. To promote both personal and group development, we work in interdisciplinary teams with meetings twice a week, which fosters good knowledge exchange and increases continuity and patient safety.
With us, you will have the opportunity to work independently with your own clinic, and we strive for everyone to have a specialist clinic, either alone or together with one or two colleagues. We also work in teams where we have close cooperation with all other professional groups at the health center. We value a good working atmosphere with opportunities for you to grow in your role.
QUALIFICATIONS
We are looking for a licensed nurse eligible to work within Swedish healthcare, preferably with further education as a district nurse. Additionally, proficiency in Swedish at least at level C1 according to the Council of Europe's language scale is a requirement. Work experience in primary care and/or urgent care is an advantage for this position. Additional qualifications in diabetes or asthma/COPD are also beneficial.
To thrive with us, we see that you can easily adapt to changing circumstances, have the ability to work independently and make your own decisions. You also possess a strong ability to collaborate with both patients and colleagues and value a positive approach. Personal suitability will be given significant weight in this selection process.
In this recruitment, we apply ongoing selection. We warmly welcome your application today, and we look forward to getting to know you!
