Together we are developing Sahlgrenska University Hospital for a sustainable future. We are transforming healthcare with the goal of being Europe's leading university hospital by 2032. Working together with patients, we strive for quality, accessibility, patient safety, research, education, and innovation – within an integrated healthcare system in the Västra Götaland Region. Our vision and goals are aimed at providing healthcare of the highest quality, where the patient is always in focus. We offer healthcare locally and regionally, as well as highly specialized care to patients throughout the country and abroad. Our employees are our strength and they contribute to knowledge exchange nationally and internationally. With digital tools and new ways of working, we can simplify daily operations at the hospital and offer modern, accessible, and efficient care of the highest quality. About the Service Neuropsychiatry is one of five adult psychiatric service areas within Sahlgrenska University Hospital. We provide specialized psychiatric care with a focus on neuropsychiatry, memory-related diseases, geriatric psychiatry, psychiatry for deaf and hard of hearing patients, psychiatry for patients with eating disorders, psychiatry for patients with intellectual disability, and patients with Huntington's disease. Within the service, we have an active and successful research unit. The Psychiatric Clinic for Intellectual Disability is a highly specialized service that serves patients aged 18 and over with intellectual disability (ID) in combination with behavioral problems or psychiatric issues at the specialist care level. The service area covers Västra Götaland Region and northern Halland. The clinic is conducting a research study (SweDown - West) aimed at improving dementia investigations for people with Down syndrome. What Do We Offer?
