International project
Almost 50% of our patients come from different countries, mostly from Western Europe. To communicate easily and closely with our patients we have at our disposal qualified interpreters who speak 15 languages (English, French, German, Dutch, Danish, Swedish,Norwegian Russian, Italian, Arab, etc.) and polyglot administration staff. Some of our doctors and nurses speak your own language as well!
One of the ambitious projects of the hospital is the creation of an International In-Patient Area where the overriding priority is the needs of our foreign patients, with multilingual staff and an inhouse translator. The Hospital offers a free tranlator service in order to ensure that the patient feels as if he ´d be at home.
The hospital is 22.000 m2 in area and consists of 2 buildings. Most of the departments are situated in the main building. Radiotherapy, Nuclear Medicine PET-Scan and Rehabilitation are situated in the Oncology Building. Both buildings have a basement, ground, 1st and 2d floor. There are 120 individual rooms altogether in the hospital, 4 of which are suites with a lounge-room. Our Intensive Care Unit, fully equipped with modern technology, has 12 independent units, 2 of which are reserved for immunodepressed or infected patients who need total isolation. The Out-Patient department has 25 consulting rooms.
We offer our patients and families an extensive private parking area for more than 500 cars.
