As a nurse, you will be trained in many basic and complex nursing tasks, based on the patient's needs and clinical condition. There can e.g. be it nutrition, drainage and catheter care, rehabilitation, wound and stoma care, palliation, nursing care for the acutely ill patient, etc. The department contains a surgical section with a total of 41 beds divided between upper and lower surgery. In addition, we have a medical section with room for 16 patients.

Our patients have diseases of the small intestine, large intestine and anus, and we specialize in fistula problems. Many of our patients come to us with to have cancer surgery performed, and we are therefore very close to patients who are in a difficult place in their lives. Therefore, palliation is also an important part of our everyday life, and you must therefore want to take care of not only the physical, but also the psychosocial part of nursing care. Per On 1 September 2024, we have started treating patients who have undergone cytoreductive surgery (CRS surgery). Cytoreductive surgery aims to reduce widespread disease involvement in patients with widespread cancer. We work from the vision of holistic care, as we consider this approach meaningful in terms of meeting patients' needs. The solid, basic nursing care is an important part of the foundation for feeling "Well treated" - regardless of whether you have just had surgery or if you have complications as a result of your underlying disease and/or previous surgery.
