About the website

Sharing information across health trusts is central to the shared online solution. Information about treatment methods and patient pathways is developed nationally, and all health trusts can use the same information. This means that patients receive the same treatment information regardless of where they live.

To ensure that patients and their next of kin also receive information relevant to their own health trust, the national treatment text is combined with local information. You will find practical information about the treatment centre, transport, departments, contact details, where to attend and events. In addition, diagnostic information from helsenorge.no is integrated into the treatment information.

The treatment information is also linked to relevant treatments in Choose a treatment centre, which shows waiting times for assessment and treatment.

All information that can be shared is published in a dedicated shared content area. From this area, health trusts can select the information they want and supplement the text with information from their own health trust.

Shared content is continuously reviewed. All health trusts can suggest changes and improvements, and all trusts are involved in the change process, which is coordinated centrally. In addition, all treatment content undergoes scheduled maintenance every two years.

All shared treatment information is approved by professionals at the trust that produces the content. When another trust uses a shared text, professionals at that health trust review the information again. You can therefore be confident that the information you read on this website has been quality-assured and approved. All information has a professional owner (name) and a responsible health trust.

All health trusts contribute shared content, with the university hospitals producing the most. This also enables health trusts that produce little treatment information to use shared content and thus provide their patients with information about treatments at their own treatment centres.

Each health trust has editorial responsibility for its own website. All enquiries about the website's content should be directed to the relevant trust.

You may reproduce texts from the website, but we ask that you credit the health trust as the source when using texts elsewhere.

You may not use images and videos from the health trust's website without permission, due to the rights attached to them. To use images or videos in the media or in other contexts, contact the health trust's communications department.
