Pediatric Clinic Mälarsjukhuset, Eskilstuna

About Us

The Pediatric and Adolescent Clinic Sörmland is a regional clinic operating at the three hospitals in the region. The pediatric clinic at Mälarsjukhuset consists of a neonatal unit, an emergency section with pediatric and adolescent wards, a children's emergency department, an outpatient clinic, and day care. Here, you benefit from the advantages of smaller hospitals with a personal and close feel while providing high-quality care and treatment. Mälarsjukhuset is located in a beautiful area near central Eskilstuna with good transport links.

The neonatal unit cares for premature infants and children in need of care at the start of life. The unit has 12 beds, four of which are intensive care beds. We accept children from week 28 and have a close collaboration with Uppsala Academic Hospital, where we can receive the smallest extremely premature infants. There is also a home care team from the unit that works as the last part of our care chain.

On the unit, we work with the vision “Sörmland's children, safe in our hands” and strive to maintain high competence among staff while always focusing on the family's right to be involved in the care of their child. Our commitment to the family is strong, and we strive for minimal separation between children and parents throughout the care chain. The family is at the center and should receive the individual care and specific attention they are entitled to.

In the spring of 2026, we will move into the newly built Mälarsjukhuset and will have new facilities that are more suited to the family-centered care we currently provide. With better conditions for minimal separation of children and parents throughout the care process, as the women's clinic with delivery and maternity will be our closest neighbor. Parent rooms will be located adjacent to the intensive care unit beds. The work environment and the unit's spaces will be better adapted to our needs.
