Specialist Physician in Emergency Medicine, Södertälje Hospital

Emergency Department Do you want to be part of a supportive community and feel joy and curiosity for each shift? In the Emergency Department, you will meet patients with a wide range of symptoms and needs. Here, every staff member is important, collaboration among professional groups is close, and the desire to continuously improve both workplace environment and patient safety is a top priority. With us, you will make a significant difference. Our team consists of nursing assistants, nurses, doctors, and administrative personnel. Most of the time, we work in a non-triage flow where patients are sorted by how ill they are rather than their organ specialization. We work in care teams with close collaboration between nursing staff and doctors, where each employee plays a crucial part in the whole. The Emergency Department includes the adult emergency room and the urgent care for children and adults. We receive 150-200 patients daily of all ages, ranging from wounds and minor fractures to sepsis alerts and cardiac arrests. Specialist Physicians at Södertälje Hospital: Södertälje Hospital is a smaller emergency hospital in Region Stockholm with specialized care in emergency medicine, geriatrics, internal medicine, surgery, obstetrics-gynecology, orthopedics, pediatrics, palliative care, and urology.

The Emergency Department oversees the emergency room and the fully integrated urgent care, and we work without triage. Over the past two years, the emergency room has undergone extensive changes and has become a new independent operational area.

Our journey continues toward becoming the best emergency room we can be!
