Nurse in the Outpatient Clinic

There is now a vacant position as a nurse in the outpatient clinic to be filled as of March 1, 2026. As a nurse in this position, you will primarily be associated with the outpatient clinic on weekdays.

Ilulissat Regional Hospital functions as a medical practice, where nurses also have independent courses. In your daily work, you will primarily be responsible for managing the courses for citizens with chronic diseases. The work is very independent and requires that you can, to a certain extent, plan and perform nursing in the various courses in collaboration with the doctor.

As a nurse employed in the outpatient clinic, you also triage calls from the city's citizens via phone. Here, citizens are referred to the various pathways, which can range from acute injuries to suddenly occurring illnesses, assessed and treated often in collaboration with the doctor. In your daily work, you are part of a team with other nurses, assistants, doctors, interpreters, receptionists, and pharmacists.

The working time standard is 40 hours per week. The position mainly involves day shifts on weekdays, and you will also participate in the work in the hospital's ward every other weekend. You will report to the head nurse in the outpatient clinic.

The hospital works interdisciplinary with somatic and psychiatric home care nurses, health visitors, radiology, laboratory, midwives, and staff in the department with 21 beds. The inpatient department functions as an emergency reception and emergency room after 4:00 PM and on weekends - for the city's approximately 5,000 residents. The regional hospital is connected to four villages, where telephone guidance and consultations are provided.

We are looking for a colleague who:

• Wishes to manage the process for chronically ill citizens.
• Experience from general medical department, outpatient clinic, and general practitioner.
• There can be a liking for working diversely and independently.
• Like new challenges
• High professionalism
• Contributes to a good working environment
• Is a trained and licensed nurse with 2 years of experience.

• A regional hospital with good interdisciplinary collaboration where we help each other.
• Work in Greenlandic culture, where the working language is Danish.
