Healthcare investments in Region Dalarna

Overview

Region Dalarna has announced significant healthcare investments aimed at modernizing facilities and reorganizing specialized services.

In mid-August, the region announced a 766 million SEK investment to modernize Avesta lasarett. The project involves renovating approximately 9,512 square meters of floor space to improve patient flows, working environments, and specialized expertise for Avesta and southern Dalarna.

By late August, the regional majority proposed an additional 1.1 billion SEK investment specifically for psychiatric care. This plan involves reorganizing inpatient care by establishing primary nodes in Säter and Falun. A central component includes relocating the psychiatric emergency department from Säter to a new, modern building in Falun, which is expected to be completed by 2033. Following this relocation, psychiatric services in Säter would shift focus toward addiction treatment and dual diagnosis.
