Make a Difference. Every Day.

The Neuro Surgery Unit (VO) in Lund is one of seven neurosurgical units in Sweden that offers highly specialized care in the southern healthcare region to patients with injuries and diseases of the central nervous system. Within the Neuro Surgery Unit, there are surgery, neuro-intensive care, inpatient care, day care, and outpatient clinics.

Our team consists of nursing assistants, nurses, doctors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and medical secretaries. Most patients have a planned admission for surgery and are admitted through our outpatient registration, which means well-prepared and secure patients before surgery. We have a strong focus on patient safety.

Our workplace is built on joy, safety, engagement, and competence. These cornerstones lead us to provide our neurosurgical patients with good and safe care. We continuously work on reviewing how we operate, changing work methods based on needs. We try to adapt to how our society looks, and therefore we have a strong focus on daring to think anew!
