About the Emergency Department

The department's function is to receive patients for acute admission or acute injury treatment, primarily for the surgical specialties, orthopaedic surgery, and the medical specialties excluding pediatric medicine.

The tasks are carried out in an interdisciplinary collaboration between the Emergency Department's staff groups, where good collaboration with on-call teams from the hospital's other departments is essential.
