Anesthesia nurses with a focus on the short patient pathway are sought for the Department of Anesthesia, Surgery and Intensive Care, Gentofte Hospital

Are you passionate about high professionalism and high-quality patient care? Do you value team spirit and joy at work?

Then we have a permanent position for you - full-time or part-time, by agreement!

In the autumn of 2025, CPLK, Center for Planned Joint and Bone Surgery at Gentofte, opened. Here the Capital Region of Denmark brings together uncomplicated elective orthopedic surgeries. The center started with hip and knee arthroplasty, which is the largest area within elective orthopedic surgery. The center, which is to contribute to the development and innovation of elective pathways across the region, will now be expanded further.

The Department of Anesthesia, Operation and Intensive Care is a large department with many opportunities and in constant development, which is why we would like to offer more operating teams.

We therefore need more colleagues – we need you!

The Department of Anesthesia, Operation and Intensive Care is one of the Capital Region’s largest departments with about 600 employees. The department is organized at both Herlev and Gentofte Hospital with a common chief physician and two chief nurses, and houses a well-functioning, cross-cutting research unit.

You can hear from our colleague, Pernille, why she thinks you should come and work with us:

Efficient patient pathways and high patient satisfaction are our hallmark

In the department we are about 50 anesthesiology nurses, from recent graduates to highly experienced, all with great commitment. We staff up to 25 operating rooms daily, where we provide anesthesia for many different specialties:

• Orthopaedic and hand surgery
• Urology
• Sports surgery
• Abdominal surgery
• Breast surgery
• Cardiology (invasive procedures)

In addition, we take care of a number of external functions, including 24/7 on-call emergency readiness including MAT call/ cardioteam, DC conversions and endoscopy units. We have professionally responsible anesthesia nurses for each area, who, together with our key personnel and clinical nursing specialists, raise the level of nursing care throughout the entire patient journey.

With us, daily life is built around the core tasks of anesthesiology. To ensure continued development toward evidence-based practice, we have established professional interest groups within the basic anesthesia nursing. We prioritize a good learning environment and work with structured competence development, including competence cards, 5-minute professional moments, weekly teaching, interdisciplinary team training, an annual theme day, and offers of clinical buddy pairs.

“Career paths” are our development program with concrete development tools to inspire you, clarify your possibilities, and support you in choosing a direction in the department.

We have a well-established airway team, which regularly arranges teaching and simulation training.

As a newcomer to the department you will participate in the hospital’s onboarding concept, which is an introduction and training program with a mentoring arrangement tailored to your experience and your competencies.

Together with our educationally responsible anesthesia nurse, we take care of a major educational task, as we are an education site for anesthesia students (1st, 2nd and 3rd module), pre-hospital personnel and medical students.

Joy at work as our compass

In the department we systematically work to ensure a good and constructive working environment, and therefore we prioritize visible leadership, collaboration and employee involvement. Our shift plans are made with great regard for individual needs and with very few shifts. You will be able to choose between a 24-hour on-call shift and a two-shift rotation. Because of low activity during school holidays and public holidays, we mainly schedule holidays during those periods.

We are looking for a colleague who…

• Is specialty trained in anesthesiology nursing
• Sees challenges in efficient and good patient pathways, mainly for elective patients
• Gains inspiration from the department’s developmental and learning environment through professional and engaged participation
• Acts consciously as a role model, professionally and personally
• Is reflective and proactive in task solving
• Contributes positively to cooperation and the working environment in the department
