Action Needed in the Premises of the Psychiatric Day and Outpatient Department

22nd October 2025

Experts from Efla have taken samples from the premises of the psychiatric day and outpatient department at Seli, and the results show contamination caused by moisture damage, which requires corrective action.

Work has already begun on measures that can be implemented without delay, such as clearing and decluttering, additional regular cleaning, assessing ventilation options, providing information, and offering support to patients and staff. However, a long-term action plan is also being developed.

Throughout this process, the main focus is on ensuring the welfare of both patients and staff
