Karolinska University Hospital
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Karolinska)
The Karolinska University Hospital or Karolinska Universitetssjukhuset is a university hospital in Stockholm, Sweden, with two major sites in the municipalities of Huddinge and Solna. The present day Karolinska University Hospital is the result of a 2004 merger between the former Huddinge University Hospital (Huddinge Universitetssjukhus) in Huddinge, south of Stockholm and the Karolinska Hospital (Karolinska Sjukhuset) in Solna, north of Stockholm. There have been reports of many problems with the merger, due to differences in work culture between the two sites. The new hospital has about 15,000 employees and 1,600 patient beds. The Karolinska University Hospital is closely affiliated with the Karolinska Institute (Karolinska institutet).
