News from REMEDY

A new national report shows how research in hospitals leads to better treatment, more accurate patient outcomes and better use of resources. Diakonhjemmet Hospital is highlighted for its research on hand osteoarthritis.

Former unit head at Diakonhjemmet Hospital, Kåre Birger Hagen, has received a prestigious international award for his efforts in rheumatology and musculoskeletal diseases.

Erlend Tuseth Aasheim will give an environmental lecture during the Green Congress 2026. He will show how the health and care services can cut emissions, use resources smarter – and at the same time be better equipped to face climate change.

The Norwegian health service is in a paradox. Never before has the desire for digitalization been clearer in the authorities' plans and strategies. At the same time, the incentives for effective digital health tools to be used are almost non-existent. The result is that we are developing digital solutions that can help patients and relieve healthcare personnel - without a system for putting the solutions into use.
