Our Operations

At Neuro Department 85D, you will meet patients with a wide variety of neurological diagnoses – from acute illnesses to planned treatments. Here we work with highly specialized care in areas such as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, motor neuron diseases (MND), and DBS (deep brain stimulation).

With us, you will have a workday that is both educational, varied, and meaningful. Patient groups that require minor neurosurgical procedures are also cared for in the department as part of their treatment. We also have two rooms for EEG monitoring around the clock for patients being investigated for or having epilepsy. A large part of our planned care consists of regional patients from all over Sweden.

We place great emphasis on professional development and offer, among other things, weekly lectures and training opportunities. At the same time, we actively work to create a good and sustainable work environment where we support each other and have fun at work.
