It is expect to take up to a week to get back to full activity after the summer holiday.
“In this way, the institution’s rehabilitation activities will be reduced to a minimum instead of maintaining operations in a limited-activity unit for up to 12 weeks during the summer,” says Helgi Þór Leifsson, Director of Clinical Services.
