Anesthesia nurse are sought for Anesthesia Department 2

We are looking for anesthesia nurses who wish to work in a department that provides anesthesia for cardiac, pulmonary, vascular, and gastrointestinal surgery patients. You will become part of a dedicated and interdisciplinary team that values high professional standards, education, and good cooperation.

Anesthesia Department 2
We are organized into two specialty-based teams, with a focus on maintaining specialty-specific competencies while also helping one another across teams to create flexibility and variety in everyday work. We are looking for colleagues who are interested in both teams, but please mention any preference in your application.
Team A:
Handles anesthesia for abdominal surgery, ECT treatment, and interventional procedures (e.g., PTC and Coiling). The team also contributes to internal and external transfers and operates the IV team, specializing in advanced invasive access.
Team TV:
A highly specialized team providing anesthesia for cardiac, thoracic, and vascular surgery, as well as procedures in the cardiology catheterization laboratory, the pulmonary medicine outpatient clinic, and the radiology department. We receive emergency cardiac patients from the pre-hospital team, are part of the hospital’s cardiac arrest team, and provide anesthesiology support in response to emergency calls within the hospital.
Anesthesia Department 2 is a training site for nursing students, nurse anesthesia trainees, physicians in specialist training, and paramedics. During on-call shifts, we are responsible for the same clinical specialties as during daytime hours, but we also work as part of a broad cross-team on-call group. We support one another to ensure that the overall anesthesia workload in the operating suite runs smoothly for the benefit of patients. Regardless of patient category, we focus on maintaining a professional and compassionate nursing relationship with each patient. We would like to hear what, in your view, characterizes a good patient journey.

• Already has or can obtain a Danish Authorization in accordance with Danish law

• has a specialized education in anesthesia nursing
• thrives with both highly specialized and general anesthesia nursing
• has a positive, flexible, and professional approach to change
• values professional quality and individual care for the patient
• contributes actively to good cooperation and a healthy work environment
• is eager to participate in our educational tasks

With us, you will receive...

• a thorough and individually tailored introduction program
• Support from experienced colleagues, with a focus on both professional and social integration
• An exciting working environment with a high level of specialization and opportunities for professional discussion and peer support
• A strong emphasis on education, development, and interdisciplinary collaboration
• Great colleagues and room for individual differences
• Language practice with an in-house consultant

We work with a 16-week rota cycle. Scheduling is carried out in close collaboration between the rota planner and clinical coordinators. Individual preferences are given high priority within the needs of the team and the requirements of the service.
This year, we moved into new, modern facilities in Hospitalsbyen and are currently adapting to the new workflows. In addition, we currently have one abdominal surgery operating list per week at Aalborg Hospital South on Hobrovej.
