About Us

Department 61 has 18 care places where we care for and treat patients with surgical diseases in the vessels, upper abdomen, jaw, as well as ear, nose, and throat.

With us, you will work with various specialties in a team with doctors and nursing assistants. We have close cooperation with physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dietitians, and hospital dental care, among others. We also have a close collaboration with the ear, nose, and throat clinic and the vascular clinic, which makes combined duties possible.

Working with us, you will learn a lot about different specialties. We care for patients undergoing thrombolysis treatment due to occlusions in the blood vessels of the extremities, patients who are tracheostomized, and patients with issues from the upper gastrointestinal tract. Many of our patients come to the department for both planned and acute pre- and post-operative care. We investigate and care for patients with malignancies, and we provide aftercare for patients who have undergone surgery or radiation treatment at Sahlgrenska. Working with us, you will develop and deepen your knowledge and competence not only in nursing and treatment but also become accustomed to handling medical technology, such as medication pumps, dressings with VAC and PICO pumps. We prepare and administer medications and nutrition via tubes, PEG, as well as venous and central accesses.

Our work also includes mentoring nursing students according to the peer learning concept.
