Our Operations

On Ward 85D, you will meet patients with a wide variety of neurological diagnoses – from acute illnesses to planned treatments. Here, we work with highly specialized care within areas such as epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, motor neuron diseases (MND), and DBS (deep brain stimulation).

With us, you will have a workday that is both educational, varied, and meaningful. Patient groups requiring minor neurosurgical procedures are also cared for on the ward as part of their treatment. We also have two wards for 24/7 EEG monitoring for patients being investigated for or diagnosed with epilepsy. A large part of our planned care consists of regional patients from all over Sweden.

We place great emphasis on competence development and offer, among other things, weekly lectures and training sessions. At the same time, we actively work to create a good and sustainable work environment where we support each other and enjoy our work.
