About the job

Become part of a strong community where professionalism, development and relationships go hand in hand. Do you want to work somewhere where you make a difference every single day? Where you become part of a strong collegial community, get the opportunity to develop professionally and experience that no day is the same? Then Psychiatric Ward 2 may be your next workplace.

We are seeking nurses for both day and evening shifts and day and night shifts, who want to work with people in some of life’s most vulnerable situations. Experience from psychiatry is an advantage but not a requirement. The most important is your curiosity, your commitment and your desire to make a difference.

Who are we?

Psychiatric Ward 2 is a physician-led reception with an intensive function. We receive adult patients with many different psychiatric issues, which provides an exciting and varied daily life with broad professional breadth.

We are a ward where collaboration means everything. Here you meet nurses, social and health care assistants, social educators, doctors, secretaries and other partners who every day work together to create the best possible patient pathways.

With us you become part of a staff group that helps each other, shares knowledge and prioritizes both professional and social well-being highly.

What will you be working with?

You will among other things

  • Have a contact person function for patients during admission
  • Receive and observe patients in acute psychiatric pathways
  • Contribute to assessment and treatment through your clinical observations
  • Work with treatment plans, coping strategies and safety plans
  • Document in the EPR
  • Work with de-escalation and relationship management

A safe start, regardless of experience

We know that starting something new can be overwhelming.

Therefore we prioritize a thorough introduction, where you will receive

  • A personal mentor
  • An introductory period where you are not included in normative staffing for the first month
  • Courses in, among other things, psychopathology and de-escalation
  • Scheduled follow-up conversations with mentor and management.

The goal is that you feel safe, well prepared and quickly become part of the community.

Professional development is a natural part of the job

We want you to develop throughout your career.

Therefore we offer ongoing competence development through courses, supervision, teaching, theme days and professional sparring. We adapt the development opportunities to your professional level and your interests.

This is why we thrive at Psychiatric Ward 2

We are proud of our work environment.

Here you will meet

✅ Collegial camaraderie and helpfulness

✅ High professionalism and opportunity for sparring

✅ Flat structure and approachable leadership

✅ Supervision and reflection as part of everyday life

✅ Focus on both patients’ and employees’ well-being
