The operation in Ystad consists of teams with nurses, nursing assistants, social workers, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, dietitians, pharmacists, doctors, medical secretaries, hospital chaplains, psychologists, and unit managers. We are constantly working to develop and strengthen teamwork to create an attractive workplace. Each employee contributes their specific competencies, and our collective efforts make a significant difference for patients and their families.
