The Acute Internal Medicine Clinic (AIM) is a newly established clinic at the university hospital in Linköping. Here, the acute internal medicine care is gathered – the ward for acute internal medicine (B172), the medical intermediate care unit (MIMA), and the coagulation clinic – under a common mission: to strengthen and develop broad internal medicine.

In the acute internal medicine ward, patients with a wide spectrum of acute and complex internal medicine conditions are cared for. In MIMA, our medical intermediate care, we offer a higher level of monitoring for patients who are too ill for a regular ward but do not require intensive care. Here, advanced medical expertise is combined with close teamwork between doctors, nurses, and nursing assistants.
