We are seeking both employees for mixed shifts and a fixed night shift in Høje-Taastrup.

From 1 January 2027 the health and care placements will become part of Amager and Hvidovre Hospital, and the newly established Center for Citizen-Centered Health will take over the operation and responsibility for the placements. Here you can be involved and have the opportunity to be part of from the start in an exciting development.

Do you want to make a difference for citizens and help create something new together with us? We look forward to hearing from you.

About the Center for Citizen-Centered Health

The Center for Citizen-Centered Health is a newly established unit at Amager and Hvidovre Hospital. From 1 January 2027, the center takes over responsibility for the operation of 138 health and care placements distributed across five sites, serving citizens from nine municipalities in Health Council Amager and Vestegnen. In addition, the center takes over the emergency nursing in the nine municipalities.

The health and care placements are targeted at citizens who need a health professional intervention but do not require hospital admission. The aim is either to prevent admission or to support the citizen's path back to their own home after illness.

In connection with the takeover, about 200 employees will become part of the center.

We are in the process of building a new organization where we will develop workflows, collaborative relationships and solutions that support a coherent and citizen-centered health system.
