Team Leader for the Acute Team at Glostrup Psychiatric Center

Do you want to lead the daily management of a multidisciplinary acute team while maintaining a close connection to clinical work?

The acute team has grown, and we are therefore strengthening the daily leadership with a team leader role. We are seeking a team leader who can create direction, structure and coherence as well as ensure that the team's workflows follow the target group and patient pathway descriptions.

The position consists initially of approximately 50 percent leadership tasks and 50 percent clinical tasks.

About the Acute Team

The Acute Team is located at Nordstjernevej in Glostrup and handles acute psychiatric patient pathways.

The team works closely with the Psychiatric Emergency Reception, the centre's other departments and outpatient units as well as municipalities, social psychiatry, general practitioners and other relevant partners.

The Acute Team is organizationally under the Psychiatric Emergency Reception (PAM). As team leader you report to the head nurse for PAM and the Acute Team.

Your role as team leader

You will be part of the centre's management team and are responsible for the daily leadership, operations and development of the Acute Team. The head nurse has the overall management, staffing and budget responsibility for PAM and the Acute Team.

• Involve employees in relevant decisions and development tasks
• Support coherent patient pathways in collaboration with patients, relatives and internal and external partners

Leadership, clinic and cross-disciplinary collaboration

You will participate in clinical patient work for about half of your working time. Your caseload will be adjusted so there is time for the daily leadership task. The concrete distribution can be adjusted according to the team's tasks, staffing and development needs.

You are expected to participate in the centre's management meetings with a particular focus on ambulatory workflows and objectives.

You will also participate in the Coordination Group for the acute area, which works across the region's acute hospitals.

We offer

• A close managerial collaboration with the head nurse
• Opportunity to shape the team's clinical direction, workflows and competence development
• A multidisciplinary workplace with complex and meaningful patient pathways
