District nurse for District Tirsdalen

Will you help raise the professional standards across elder care? Do you have strong nursing competencies, and are you passionate about developing others and creating learning close to practice? Then you may be the district nurse we are looking for in District Tirsdalen 😊

In Randers Municipality, we are in the process of implementing the Elder Reform and a new organization where nursing is integrated into the districts/home care. We are establishing fixed cross-disciplinary teams where nurses, physiotherapists and occupational therapists, social and healthcare assistants, and social and healthcare helpers work closely around the citizens. This creates new opportunities to bring coherence, strengthen professionalism, and ensure that citizens receive the right help close to their daily lives.

We will be two district nurses

As part of the politically decided strengthening of elder care, all districts/home care in Randers Municipality will in the future have two district nurses.

In District Tirsdalen we already have a skilled and experienced district nurse, and we are now seeking her new partner. Together you will play a central role in supporting and developing the professional quality in the district. You will become close professional collaborators and have the opportunity to make each other look good, share knowledge, and jointly create learning and competence development close to practice.

The two district nurses will also be an important part of the overall professional community in the district, and where you—in close cooperation with nursing and therapists—will help lift the entire elder care in terms of competence.

You make others more capable

As a district nurse, your most important task is not to perform nursing for citizens yourself, but to support and upgrade our SOSU workers so they are even better equipped to carry out care and nursing tasks for citizens.

You must be close to practice and translate your nursing knowledge into learning in everyday life. This can be through professional sparring, guidance, teaching, or bedside learning.

You must be able to see where there is a need for a competence boost, and together with the employee find the best way to create learning. This requires that you can see the professionalism, ask the right questions, teach, and create learning in the situation.

A strong cross-disciplinary collaboration

You will not be left alone with the task.

You will become part of a close professional collaboration with the district's nursing and therapy group, where different professionalities are brought into play to create the best possible offer to the citizens. Together you shall support employees in developing their competences and create a culture where professional sparring, learning, and competence development are a natural part of everyday life.

We believe we succeed best when we use each other6s professionalities and work together toward the common goal: to create high quality and coherence for the citizen.

Your tasks

As a district nurse you will have a broad professional role. You will, among other things

• Be a professional sparring partner for social- and healthcare assistants, social- and healthcare assistants and other staff such as unskilled substitutes

We are looking for you who are motivated by making others more capable
