Resident physician position at Hammel Neurocenter Regional Hospital, Skive

A position as an unclassified resident physician at Regionshospitalet Hammel Neurocenter's ward in Skive is vacant for filling on 1 December 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter. The position is 37 hours per week and runs for 1 year.

As a resident physician at Hammel Neurocenter's ward in Skive (S12 and S13) you will be part of a local medical group that daily handles clinical and development-oriented tasks in close collaboration. You will also be part of the overarching medical group at Hammel Neurocenter which has a dynamic educational and research-oriented younger doctor-environment with neurological clinical trainees and a clinical supervisor team consisting of neurological and neurosurgical specialists.

The clinical tasks

The resident will walk rounds, receive new patients and participate in a multidisciplinary collaboration around the patients on S12 and S13 with nurses, therapists, speech therapists, social workers and neuropsychologists. Rehabilitation work is based on a holistic approach to the patient and the relatives, where patient involvement in their own rehabilitation is an important factor.

At the departments in Skive there are currently 3 specialists, and at Hammel Neurocenter in general there are 17 specialists from different specialties who work closely and consult with each other regarding their respective specialty areas. During employment you will as a rule be attached to a single ward at a time, and the daily work will take place in close collaboration with the specialist who handles the care responsibility for the patients.

In collaboration with the specialist, tasks will be distributed according to the professional competencies you bring. Your individual development during the employment will be prioritized, and your interests will be supported as you gain insight into the neurorehabilitation field.

There will always be great attention to ensure coherence between competences, tasks and your personal capacity, as we believe that job satisfaction and security in solving tasks are a prerequisite for well-being and good task execution.

In 8 weeks of each semester there will be medical students on clinical placement. Part of the younger doctors' tasks is to help the new colleagues settle well and give them a positive experience during their clinical placement in the specialized neurorehabilitation.

The position includes the possibility of participation in call duties with an experienced specialist as backup when sufficient competences have been achieved.

Research tasks at Hammel Neurocenter

As a highly specialized neurorehabilitation hospital and university clinic under Aarhus University, there is, as a natural thing at RHN, a large research activity with interdisciplinary, including medical, participation. Although the current position does not allocate time for continuous research, there is ample opportunity to dabble in research and become familiar with the medical research field within neurorehabilitation. For the right applicant, based on a relevant research idea and research ambition, there will be an opportunity to start a process with drafting a project description and a fundraising process.

The research activity or project description must be based on the patient group at RHN and as far as possible be clinically oriented. There will be an opportunity for close sparring with clinically and research-experienced colleagues in the process.
