Do you want to use your clinical eye in everyday life, where nursing and special education go hand in hand?

Do you want to use your clinical eye in a daily life where nursing and special pedagogy go hand in hand?

At Bøgehuset we are looking for a nurse who wants to take on a significant health professional responsibility and at the same time be an important part of everyday life for children with congenital deafblindness.

Bøgehuset's core task is special pedagogy. As a nurse, your job is to oversee the health-related interventions around the children. You will use your clinical assessments and your eye for their health and well-being both in independent nursing tasks and in cross-disciplinary collaboration.

You do not need to know the deafblind field beforehand . The most important thing is that you are professionally well-founded, curious, and want to use your nursing expertise in an unusual and highly specialized environment.

You will gain a special specialization

We know that working at Bøgehuset differs from most other nursing positions. Therefore we offer a structured introduction period with thorough training in both your health-related responsibilities and the special pedagogical methods and communication forms we work with.

You come with your nursing background. We ensure that you have the opportunity to build on it with specialized knowledge about our target group.

About the job: Nursing responsibility in a special pedagogical everyday life

You will have clinical responsibilities and an important role in ensuring and developing the quality of the health-related interventions at Bøgehuset.

At the same time you will be an active part of the cross-disciplinary team around the children. Here you contribute with your health-related observations and assessments, spar with colleagues, and help strengthen the shared focus on the children's health and well-being.

To provide the best possible nursing support, you need to know the children and understand their individual needs and communication forms. Close contact is essential for you to notice even small changes in their condition and respond to them.

Your nursing professionalism becomes a natural and important part of everyday life, where health, care, and special pedagogy are closely integrated. You bring your professional knowledge and your clinical eye into the joint effort around each child.

Your health-related areas of responsibility

You will handle nursing tasks throughout your working time. During daytime there is also an opportunity to collect tasks that require special time for coordination, documentation, and follow-up.

You will have, among other things, responsibility for

• Medication management: Professional administration of medicines and overview of the children's medical treatment.
• Clinical observation and assessment: To detect, assess, and respond to changes in the children's health status. Also the small signs that can be difficult to read.
• Health-related documentation: Quality assurance of records, systematic documentation and follow-up.
• Health-related collaboration: Contact with general practitioners and coordination of health-related processes.
• Professional development and quality: To contribute to developing health-related practice through professional assessments, sparring and follow-up.
• Interdisciplinary sparring: To share your nursing knowledge with colleagues and strengthen the joint focus on the children's health.

Your nursing professionalism in the special pedagogical everyday life

You are close to the children in daily life. This provides you with an important basis for observing their health, assessing needs and planning the nursing interventions.

This means, among other things, that you

• Build close and trusting relationships with the children and learn to know their individual signals, reactions and needs.
• Work with specialized communication , including total communication, tactile communication and sign language, as a natural part of care, welfare, and interaction. You do not need to be able to do this beforehand! Most do not. You will learn it with us.
• Participate in everyday routines and activities , including meals, personal care, and pedagogical activities, where you contribute with your health-related knowledge.

You thus participate in the joint task solution around the children, but with your own professional contribution as an indispensable part.

We imagine that you

• are a trained nurse with Danish authorization.
• are a professionally well-founded nurse who wants to use your clinical knowledge in a highly specialized environment.
• thrive with independent clinical responsibility and would like to contribute to developing the health-related effort.
• want to share your knowledge and bring new perspectives into the cross-disciplinary collaboration.
• have an eye for the connection between the children's health, care, well-being and development.
• thrive with both the clinical work and the close, relational contact with the children.
• are curious to learn deafblind-specific communication forms.
• can remain calm and maintain professional overview in situations with outbursts or challenging behavior.

Working hours and shift pattern

The position is initially 37 hours per week, but we also have the option to offer fewer hours if you wish.

You will handle nursing tasks in day, evening, and weekend shifts.

• 2–3 days per week planned with potential for uninterrupted time for, among other things, health-related documentation, coordination and follow-up. The remaining shifts are performed close to the children, where your nursing observations, assessments and interventions are part of the daily care and welfare.
• A fixed evening shift once a week.
• Work every other weekend, both Saturday and Sunday, in day or evening shifts.
