Do you want to work nights in a professionally strong environment with a good framework, clear organization and supportive colleagues?
At Department 1 at Løten helsetun, we now have two permanent positions available as a nurse, protective nurse or health professional at night. Here you will be part of a committed and competent team that works every day to provide patients with safe, comprehensive and professional care.

Ward 1 has 31 places, divided into long-term places, one municipal emergency care place and eight short-term and respite places.
This provides a varied working day with room for professional assessments, development and responsibility. We have good nurse coverage and a clear focus on quality in our services. Our working environment is characterized by cooperation, trust and good humor - here we support each other and take the profession seriously.

The night work is organized with both an ambulatory nurse for the entire nursing home and a stationary nurse, protective nurse or health professional on the ward. In the position, you will have the role of stationary night watchman on Ward 1, and work closely with the mobile nurse who has primary responsibility for two wards. Collaboration with the other department is also expected, which provides both independence in the role and security through available professional support.
