The Neuro Intensive Care Unit (NIVA) in Lund provides highly specialized intensive care and is part of the area of operations (VO) for neurosurgery and pain rehabilitation. We have a regional assignment that means we serve the entire Southern healthcare region with highly specialized neuro intensive care. NIVA has six intensive care beds where we primarily care for patients with severe head and/or spinal injuries. NIVA is a high-tech intensive care unit characterized by a desire to achieve medical results of the highest quality.

We are an intermediate unit with four care beds where we care for acute patients and patients in need of extra monitoring. The care needs can vary from advanced care to lighter monitoring. There is also a postoperative unit with four care beds where we provide postoperative care for the unit's newly operated patients. The postoperative unit also cares for newly operated children. We have round-the-clock operations in our operating department, and within the unit, there is also a care ward, day care services, and a reception. Approximately 300 people work in our organization.
