About the job

Are you interested in making a significant difference in a child's life? We are seeking 2 qualified and experienced nurses for a fixed team around a 12-year-old boy in Silkeborg. There is one permanent position of 30 hours and one relief position.

You will play a central role in monitoring, activation and care of an active and joyful boy with severe epilepsy and extensive care needs.

About the job

As a nurse you will be part of a team around a young boy who lives at home with his family in the countryside. The boy has a chromosomal defect that affects the brain and development, and results in daily epileptic seizures. The focus is on creating security, life value and good everyday experiences — also when care requires special attention.

Your tasks will include

✅ Daily care and constant observation of epileptic seizures

✅ Acute response to seizures, including medication

✅ Support and accompaniment in activities outside the home

✅ Driving in the family's accessible car ( a driver's license is required )

Working hours

🔹 Day, evening and night shifts: 7-hour shifts (12-hour shifts occur)

🔹 Weekend shifts: 12-hour shifts (approx. once a month)

🔹 Flexibility : Opportunity to take extra shifts due to illness and holidays.

Who are you?

We are looking for a nurse with

✔ Experience in pediatric care, intensive care, emergency care or neurology

✔ Knowledge of epilepsy and seizure management

✔ Physical resilience, as the boy requires physical support despite aids

✔ Ability to work independently in close collaboration with the family

✔ A flexible and stable approach to shift planning

We offer

🌟 A thorough and individually tailored training

🌟 The opportunity to make a real difference in a family’s daily life

🌟 A job with independence, responsibility and close collaboration with the family

🌟 Salary according to DSR’s agreement for temporary staff
