Are you a nurse, thriving in multidisciplinary teams and passionate about an exciting specialty? Then you might be the one we are looking for.

Vestdansk Center for Rygmarvsskade is a large and well-functioning department with many dedicated employees. This means that we regularly wish a colleague a good maternity leave or retirement. Therefore we are seeking a nurse for 37 hours/week, for permanent employment from 1 December/January 2026 or by agreement – we are happy to wait for the right person.

The position is in mixed shifts and with weekend shifts. You will be employed in a three-shift system, but primarily work in two-shift (day/evening or day/night). If you have a strong desire for primarily on-call work (evening or night), that might also be possible.

We offer a workplace where

There is a strong focus on onboarding. We have a thorough onboarding program tailored individually for you with, among others, an introductory program, interviews, training, a mentor and several intro-shifts. We have good experience onboarding both new graduates, those with many years of experience and those in between.

We work in high specialization with rehabilitation both multidisciplinary and monodisciplinary. We work in multidisciplinary teams and have both multidisciplinary and monodisciplinary sparring, teaching and supervision. The nursing profession offers a wide range of different nursing-related problem areas e.g. urology, respiration, sexology, intestine, nutrition, circulation, crisis, wounds, sleep, communication, hygiene etc. at a high professional level. We continually work to develop our nursing professionalism.

Patient is the key person in their pathway. We focus on giving the patient tools and knowledge to be able to tackle challenges related to issues after the spinal cord injury. It is essential that we get to know the patient in order to plan the best rehabilitation course. Patient and staff find together the best path in each process. Here the length of a hospital stay is often 2-3 months, and there is an opportunity to follow, observe development and adapt the nursing care in the rehabilitation processes along the way.
