About Us

The Psychosis Department is an acute psychiatric ward with 13 beds, primarily aimed at the care of individuals suffering from psychosis. The care is designed from a holistic perspective, taking into account the individual's specific needs and overall life situation. The ward provides pharmacological treatment, Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), caring conversations, and nursing based on person-centered care. We also consider the individual's social and economic situation, with support from a social worker. A psychologist is also available.

We are about 25 people working in the department, consisting of nurses, nursing assistants, doctors, and medical secretaries. You will work in a care team where the goal is to provide good care to each unique individual. At the Psychosis Department, we continuously strive to provide and develop person-centered care, which we hope you want to be a part of.
