"The reason I became a nurse was to help, nurture, and show love to other fellow beings who were in need, and I am able to live that dream at Marklund.

What sets Marklund apart for me is the homelike setting as well as the client-staff ratio. I feel as though I'm providing care for someone in their home which inspires me to keep care more personal. It's a very warm and inviting atmosphere, which makes me feel as if I'm going to my home away from home. Also because of the working ratios the quality of care provided is much higher, which is something you can feel proud of.
