Stockholms Sjukhem

About

Stockholms Sjukhem is a private hospital and nursing home owned and operated by a foundation formed in the 1860s. The work is primarily conducted on the basis of care agreements with municipalities and Stockholms county council. Our areas of expertise and profiling are rehabilitation, palliative care and residential care for people with illness because of old age or neurological or dementia illnesses. We have a unit for research, development and education that is affiliated to the Karolinska institute and allows for unique development opportunities within our care profiles. From 2007 we also operate Brommageratriken, a geriatric hospital with 134 care places. Stockholm Sjukhem's oldest building dating from the 1890s is being reconstructed to create more hospital beds. The rebuilding, which includes two major buildings - the old house from the 1890s as well as a building from the 50s, is expected to be completed late autumn 2014. Stockholms Sjukhem will then be able to offer an additional 42 beds for in-patients.
