About this role
Make a difference. Every day.
The area of operation (VO) for cardiology and pulmonology (HLM) at Skåne University Hospital (Sus) consists of four sections: heart failure and valve, arrhythmia, coronary artery, and the lung and allergy unit. We provide highly specialized care in cardiology and pulmonology in both Lund and Malmö. Nursing rounds are being introduced and will be an important part of the care where the interdisciplinary team plans for patients.
The Heart Intensive Care Unit (HIA) is the largest center in the country for the treatment of acute heart disease, and we provide high-tech care. Here, we offer opportunities for continuing education, development, and research for each individual employee. Our unit is characterized by employee-driven development where all staff members play a crucial role in achieving our goal: to be Sweden's leading heart intensive care and interventional unit. We work in process-oriented groups to develop care, always in collaboration with doctors, nurses, nursing assistants, physiotherapists, social workers, and medical secretaries as equal members.
Many of our staff have extensive experience in heart intensive care, and with this solid expertise, we are ready to welcome both experienced and newly graduated colleagues. After a period with us, you will be equally comfortable receiving a patient directly from the ambulance stretcher with an ongoing heart attack as you will be providing meticulous specialized care to a highly unstable heart failure patient awaiting a heart transplant.
