Psychiatric Clinic Mälarsjukhuset, Eskilstuna

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 where the individual's needs and overall life situation are taken into account. The department 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, caregivers, doctors, and medical secretaries. You will work in a care team where the goal is to provide good care for each unique individual. In the Psychosis Department, we constantly strive to provide and develop person-centered care, which we believe you want to be a part of.

We have initiated a centralization in Sörmland of LRV care to the Psychosis Department at Mälarsjukhuset for patients in the transition phase from Karsudden forensic psychiatry.
