Our Operations

At NIMA, the neurosurgery intermediate care unit, neurosurgical and neurological patients in need of intermediate or postoperative care are treated. Our acute intake mostly consists of intermediate care patients who are too ill for a regular ward but do not require full-scale intensive care. Our postoperative patients are usually part of a planned operation and come to us for a shorter period postoperatively.

Together with skilled nurses, nursing assistants, and doctors, we form a winning and developing team. Our expertise is advanced monitoring of the body's vital parameters to create the best possible conditions for the brain and to reduce the risk of complications. Our staff group consists of both experienced nurses and nursing assistants as well as newly graduated.

Your Competence
