In line with our slogan, “With us, people are in the best of hands”, our patients’ needs and interests are the focus of all of our efforts. To avoid the doctor-centred “specialist” approach that sometime characterises healthcare, we assemble interdisciplinary teams, which work together with the patients or residents, as well as their families or...
