About us
Hospital Lillebælt is the Patients ‘Hospital and consists of three hospitals, each with its own special focus: the Patients’ Emergency Hospital in Kolding, the Patients ‘Cancer and Specialist Hospital in Vejle and the Patients’ Back Center in Middelfart.
The patient first
Well over 5,000 employees form the foundation of Sygehus Lillebælt. Common to all is that we always put the human being first and work on the basis of what will be best for the individual. This means that we involve the patients and the relatives, and that we make the decisions about treatment and care together.
It must be a positive experience for everyone to receive treatment and care at Sygehus Lillebælt. Our patients and their relatives must feel safe and secure while they are here, and they must leave here with the feeling of having been helped with what matters to them.
At Lillebælt Hospital, we are good at developing ourselves and learning from the best. We are open to all inputs that can help us make ourselves even better, and we work closely with other hospitals and relevant organizations both nationally and internationally.
Collaboration in the health system
To ensure good, coherent processes for patients, we at Sygehus Lillebælt work closely with municipalities and general practitioners in our admission area. It is a collaboration that we are constantly working to expand and improve, so that patients feel well helped in the transition between the different parts of the healthcare system. We work especially with sharing knowledge with our colleagues outside the hospitals – both the knowledge that must accompany a patient who has been admitted and the knowledge we need in the treatment of a patient who comes in from their own doctor or municipal offers.
Lillebælt Hospital is educating
Lillebælt Hospital is a large educational institution, not only for doctors, but also for nurses, medical secretaries, social services assistants, radiographers and many other professional groups. The students learn to use their professionalism in interaction with other professional groups and always with the patient at the center.
We work closely with the University of Southern Denmark, the nursing schools in the area and other educational institutions, both in the field of education and research.
