Become a key player in the future Regional Acute Nursing on Funen at Langeland

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

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

Then you now have a unique opportunity: We are building the Regional Acute Nursing Funen in Citizen-Centered Health at OUH and are seeking nurses who want to be involved from the start.

Why choose Citizen-Centered Health

With us you don’t just get a job – you get a central role in building the new, close-to-the-citizen health system.

Citizen-Centered Health is a new clinical department established on January 1, 2026 as part of the health reform. From January 1, 2027 we will consolidate the responsibility for acute nursing, health and care beds, and patient-oriented prevention.

Our task is clear: to bring advanced nursing, treatment and assessment very close to the citizen’s daily life, and to create equality in health and coherence across hospital, municipality and general practice.

In the transition, The Regional Acute 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 supporting you
• gain real clinical autonomy and influence on decisions
• help shape workflows, culture and professional direction from day one.

You will be part of a unified unit, across the Funen municipalities, based at the Health and Care Centers on Langeland and reporting to the Head of Operations for Acute Nursing.

Your role

You will become a central clinical actor in the close-to-the-citizen health system and will among other things be required to:

• handle acute and subacute tasks in the citizen’s own home
• conduct independent clinical assessments and initiate treatment
• work closely with physicians on assessment and treatment plans
• contribute to preventing unnecessary hospitalizations and support earlier discharges
• ensure coherent patient pathways across sectors
• be 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 acute nursing, acute reception, intensive care, anesthesia or home nursing (i.e. you do not need to have a special qualification)
• are comfortable with independent clinical decisions – even when it gets fast-paced
• are motivated to help build something new in close collaboration with colleagues and management
• have strong clinical observation and assessment skills
• are able to build trust with citizens and partners

Professional development – not just a promise

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

• systematic competency development in acute nursing
• close sparring with colleagues and medical support
• active participation in developing new workflows and solutions
• opportunity to influence future practice – locally and regionally

Employment terms and application

These are permanent positions with 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 Collective – Agreement 32.17.1.
