Become a key player in the future regional acute care nursing in Funen

Are you an experienced nurse who thrives on clinical decisions, complexity and independence in the acute setting?

Do you want to be among the first to shape a completely new regional function, with strong professional backing from OUH?

Then you have a unique opportunity: We are building the Regional Emergency Nursing Funen in Borgernær Sundhed at OUH and are looking for nurses who want to be involved from the start.

Why choose Borgernær Sundhed

With us you don’t just get a job – you play a central role in building the new, close healthcare system.

Borgernær Sundhed is a new clinical department established 1 January 2026 as part of the Health Reform. From 1 January 2027 we will consolidate responsibility for emergency nursing, health and care places and patient-facing prevention.

Our task is clear: to bring advanced nursing, treatment and assessment right into the citizen’s everyday life, and to create equity in health and continuity across hospital, municipality and general practice.

In this transformation, the Regional Emergency Nursing plays a central role, and you will have the opportunity to

• work closely with the citizen, the municipality and general practice – and with OUH backing
• gain genuine clinical autonomy and influence over decisions
• help shape workflows, culture and professional direction from day one.

You will become part of a unified unit, across the Funen municipalities, based at the Health and Care Places in Søndersø and reporting to the head of the Emergency Nursing function.

Your role

You will become a central clinical actor in the close health services and will among other things need to:

• handle acute and subacute tasks in the citizen’s own home
• perform independent clinical assessments and initiate treatment
• collaborate closely with physicians on investigations and treatment plans
• contribute to preventing unnecessary hospitalizations and support earlier discharges
• ensure cohesive patient pathways across sectors
• serve as a professional sparring partner for colleagues – both by phone and in person

We are looking for you who

• have solid experience from e.g. municipal emergency nursing, emergency reception, intensive care, anesthesia or home nursing (i.e. you do not need to have a specialist education)
• are comfortable in independent clinical decisions – even when it gets busy
• are motivated by helping to build something new in close collaboration with colleagues and management
• have strong clinical observation and assessment competencies
• can earn the trust of citizens and partners

Professional development – not just a promise

You will become part of an environment where development is built into everyday life

• systematic competence development in emergency nursing
• close sparring with colleagues and medical support
• active participation in the development of new workflows and solutions
• opportunity to influence future practice – locally and regionally

This concerns permanent positions of 37 hours per week in mixed shifts.

The region is obliged to inform you of the starting salary for the position. You will be told the base salary, centrally fixed allowances and pension in the Health Union – collective agreement 32.17.1.
