Paediatric and Adolescent Ward

A daily inpatient fee is collected from inpatient stay. Patients under 18 pay a maximum daily inpatient fee of 7 days a year.

See client fees.

Our ward has free visiting hours for the parents of the children. The parents can take part in caring for the child throughout the day as far as they are able, and one parent can spend the night in the child’s room. Visits by other close persons should be agreed upon with the ward. The hospital also offers other free-of-charge accommodation options for long-distance travellers. You can ask the care provider for more information.

We ask people with an infection not to visit the ward. In addition, we ask all visitors to avoid using perfumes.

As far as is possible, a daily programme based on your child's needs will be arranged for your child. In addition to examinations, treatment, and treatment guidance, your child has the possibility to play. In our ward, there is a play room with toys for children of different ages, a TV, games and films. You will be instructed in the use of the play room by our staff.

There is also Wi-fi in the hospital.

School-age children have the possibility to receive teaching under the guidance of a hospital school teacher.

The rooms have locked cabinets for storing possessions.

You can bring your child's own important items to the hospital, but you should label them.

The ward has a small dining space for parents with the possibility to make coffee, a fridge and a microwave oven.

The doctor's rounds take place on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

Hospital personnel are bound by professional secrecy. Primarily, we only provide information about the child to the parents.

In our unit, you can take internships in nursing children and young people. During your internship, you will have the opportunity to develop versatile skills in nursing children and families, especially basic care of children of different ages, drug calculations, drug handling, taking different samples and isolation practices.

We expect a motivated, active and responsible attitude, interest in paediatric nursing, and the ability to request, give and receive feedback. We require that students who come to us have completed the theoretical studies in paediatrics, the theoretical studies and internships in internal medicine and surgery, as well as the drug calculations required in the courses.
