Interim Department Manager, Geriatric Center, Umeå

Region Västerbotten works to ensure that good health and sustainable development strengthen each other. We take responsibility for equitable welfare and for ensuring that research and innovation deliver results. The Geriatric Center is a specialist clinic for patients requiring both acute and subacute geriatric care and rehabilitation. A comprehensive assessment of the elderly patient's medical, physical, mental, and social functioning during illness, as well as functional capacity, is performed by a multidisciplinary team, known as Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA). Diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation are conducted with the patient's individual needs in focus. The target population is people 65 years and older with multiple conditions (multimorbidity) combined with the consequences of aging, requiring specialized care and rehabilitation. The Geriatric Center brings together several different professions in effective collaboration across and within departments. We focus on subacute general geriatric care and rehabilitation, as well as fast-track care with patient transfers from MAVA and the Infectious Diseases Clinic. We provide psychogeriatric specialized care, treatment, and rehabilitation for people with cognitive diseases and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) regardless of age. Additionally, we provide orthogeriatric acute and subacute care and rehabilitation. We also offer outpatient services including a psychogeriatric clinic, an osteoporosis clinic with bone density measurement, and specialist teams working in homes with people suffering from dementia, multimorbidity, and orthopedic conditions.
