Field of Activity Anesthesia, Surgery, and Intensive Care

We in anesthesia, surgery, and intensive care take care of patients and families facing a critical moment. For some, we are the last hope. For others, we create an opportunity for a better life. Whether you work in the sterile technical department, in one of our flying operations, in the intensive care unit, or in surgery, you play a crucial role in critical moments. Welcome with your application to become a part of us.

Our Operations

We in neuroanesthesia are responsible for anesthesia during neurosurgical procedures in the brain and spinal cord. The responsibility also includes acute thrombectomies and anesthesia during neuro-interventions in radiology. In the autumn of 2020, we launched a new MR hybrid operating room, which is the second in Sweden and also the largest, of which we are very proud. There, we can perform MRI during ongoing surgery. The technology allows for more precise results during surgeries, including brain tumor operations. The operations are conducted around the clock. We also perform anesthesia for two related operations, ear and eye surgery.
