A gym is available in our premises. We are close to public transport, have good cycling paths with access to locked bicycle racks, and offer employee subsidies for car parking.

We apply the Working Time Agreement with the Swedish Union of Health Professionals. The agreement means that nurses working shifts in 24/7 operations earn time into a time bank.
