Planning of health care operations
The new Karolinska Solna project has been both an operational project and a construction project. In February 2009, the NKS administration started work on the project "Operational Content", which should provide data and proposals for what should be included in the health care organization in the new University hospital. In March 2011 a basic NKS report on medical content was released.
From the launch of the project NKS has been an overall comprehensive project containing both design, construction and procurement of the new hospital as well as research, analysis and creation of conceps for future healthcare and the organization of a modern university hospital.
The strategy for the New Karolinska Solna is to build a university hospital that is as general and flexible as possible. The new university hospital should be able to meet the changing requirements that rapid medical and technological developments continually require without having to make refurbishments in the future. This also means that the medical operational content can only be determined relatively late in the construction process.
The new Karolinska Solna will be at the center of a nationally and internationally competitive University hospital healthcare system. The hospital will be a special hospital for the region, focusing on highly specialized as well as specialized care. Medical care should be balanced with research in the best way possible. Educational training should be related to the research and medical care operations.
