If you also have an interest in basic palliative care and want to make a difference for patients and relatives in vulnerable life situations, then perhaps you are the one we are looking for.

About the position

As a nurse in Clinic 1, you will become part of our dedicated prostate team. The team follows patients throughout the entire disease process, from investigation and diagnosis to treatment, follow-up, rehabilitation and palliation.

You will meet patients who come for outpatient controls, receive medical treatment or are in the process around surgical treatment. At the same time you will play an important role in basic palliative care, where the focus is on symptom relief, quality of life and support to patients and their relatives.

  • Palliative conversations with focus on relief, support and forward-looking wishes.
  • Assist with surgical procedures.

  • Work in a structured manner and have good collaborative skills.
  • Meet patients and relatives with respect, empathy and professional security.
  • Would like to contribute actively to an engaged and development-oriented team.
  • Possess experience with cancer patients or palliative pathways, but this is not a requirement.

What we offer

With us you have the opportunity to become part of a department where professional development, collaboration and patient-centered treatment are in focus.

We offer

  • An engaged and professionally strong multidisciplinary team with extensive experience in prostate cancer
  • Thorough introduction and training.
