Queen Silvia was present at the certification which took place at the Karolinska University Hospital in Huddinge on February 22. The certification was possible thanks to all 180 employees at the unit having undergone training in dementia care (Silvia training).

The training took place on site in Huddinge with staff from Silviahemmet, in collaboration with NVS. NVS theme prefect Dorota Religa, the division of clinical geriatrics, was present as a senior physician at the unit, where several others from the department also have their joint appointments.
