Specialist Physician

Popis:

Primary Care Department Tierp Älvkarleby Our 1,800 employees work with primary care and health in Uppsala County. We offer a broad range of services within primary care. Our patients meet us at Region Uppsala's own health centers or within rehabilitation services, and we provide advice by phone via 1177. Education, research, and development are important to us, as we adapt our services based on residents' needs. We already offer mobile teams, video visits, and smart e-services. Specialist Physician for the Primary Care Department in Tierp We are now seeking a new colleague for the primary care department in Tierp. Start date is by agreement and the position is 70-100%. Your Assignment You will work closely with a care team consisting of nurses, nursing assistants, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and pharmacists, as well as dietitians when needed. Your work involves assessing patients for possible inpatient care on the department, providing inpatient care, and planning for discharge. We place great emphasis on individualizing care and involving both patients and family members, as well as planning ahead together with health centers and municipalities to create security and clarity after discharge. Today, two part-time specialists work at the unit, and we are now expanding with a specialist colleague with the goal that there will always be two physicians on duty sharing the physician responsibility at the department. You will work weekdays between 8:00 AM–4:30 PM; compensation is provided based on geographic location. On-call duties are not part of the assignment. Our Operations The Primary Care Department is part of Health Center Tierp. The department has 18 care beds with shorter care periods and adapted admission and discharge flows. The assignment is at the primary care level for ages 17 and up. The department primarily cares for elderly patients with complex needs who require inpatient care but are not considered to benefit from hospital resources. Patients are admitted from health centers, municipalities, on-call services, mobile primary care teams, and academic institutions. The department also has some day care activities. We work according to a person-centered approach where great importance is placed on involving patients and their loved ones in care. Your Qualifications We are looking for someone who is a specialist in general medicine, internal medicine, or geriatrics and holds Swedish physician licensure. You have a commitment to meeting patients with increasing frailty and to adapting care based on the individual's wishes and circumstances. You are accustomed to working independently and taking initiative, but are also interested in a team-based approach. It is important that you are a good communicator in Swedish, both spoken and written. You have good collaboration skills and appreciate teamwork. Since the primary care department is a relatively new form of care, we are keen that you are interested in being part of developing the operations together with other employees.
