There she informed about the government&#8217;s final decision: In the future there will be a maternity service in Elverum.  A full-fledged maternity ward in Lillehammer.  And a women&#8217;s clinic for the entire interior of Moelv.  There is also food on offer at Tynset.  And at Kongsvinger hospital, which is located below Ahus.  There will be maternity services at five locations in the interior in the future.  In Elverum, Tynset, Lillehammer, Kongsvinger and at Mj\u00f8ssjukehuset on Moelv.

Now Helse S\u00f8r-\u00d6st is free to decide what the offer will be in the future.  A birthing room or a so-called birthing hotel.  Women who wish can stay there after giving birth at the hospital in Moelv.  There is no question of a full-fledged maternity ward.  It has long been clear that both Finance Minister Trygve Slagsvold Vedum and Justice Minister Emilie Enger Mehl have thought that there should still be a maternity service in Elverum.  Most recently, during the conference Arena Innlandet in Elverum earlier this year, Mehl underlined how important it is that people can give birth there.  Minister of Justice Emilie Enger Mehl (Sp) has argued strongly for keeping a maternity service in Elverum.  Both he and Trygve Slagsvold Vedum have had a say in the team when the government has now decided.  Both come from Hedmark and have fought for the local hospital.  Photo: Javad Parsa \/ NTB When the government agreed to establish a new large hospital in Moelv, it was also under the assumption that Helse S\u00f8r-\u00d6st would work out the possibility that there would still be maternity services both in Elverum and Lillehammer.  The government has now made its final decision.  &#8211; With this decision, the last pieces are in place so that Mj\u00f8ssjukehuset can be realised, says Kjerkol after today&#8217;s meeting.  Now Helse S\u00f8r-Est and Sjukehuset Innlandet can go ahead with the work on the planned Mj\u00f8ssjukehuset.  The board wants a birthing stove.  Chairman Svein Gjedrem says they will look at what food options they will have in Elverum.  But now this is up to the board of Health South-East, the politicians have had their say.  Chairman Svein Gjedrem says it is a happy day for the hospital plans in the interior.  For now, the government has fully agreed to all parts of the plans.  &#8211; The next time it will be discussed politically is when we will ask for money for the preliminary project and construction, Photo: Erlend Aas \/ SCANPIX Before Christmas, Helse S\u00f8r-\u00d8st decided to close the offer in Elverum.  They believed that spreading resources and specialists could undermine the plans for a new women&#8217;s clinic at Mj\u00f8ssjukehuset in Moelv.  At the same time, they decided that they could consider a birthing room.  Today, Gjedrem will not say clearly what will happen.  Whether there will be a maternity hospital or a so-called maternity hotel, where maternity women can stay after they have given birth at Mj\u00f8ssjukehuset in Elverum, &#8211; There will be maternity services in Elverum in the future.  Now the administration in Helse S\u00f8r-Est will find out what might be the best solution, and present it to the board, says Gjedrem.  Joy in Elverum Mayor Lillian Skj\u00e6rvik (Ap) in Elverum is happy about the message from the Minister of Health.  She says that a lot has happened since December 2020, and that the hospital in Elverum has been given many tasks since then.  Mayor Lillan Skj\u00e6rvik in Elverum.

I think that&#8217;s good, and I hope that it will be the best possible for women giving birth in S\u00f8r-\u00d8sterdalen.  She says that she trusts that in the end it will be as Kjerkol has promised.  At the hospital in Lillehammer, they feared that there would be a full maternity service, because it could affect the staffing and the service there.  Lillehammer also continues as a full-fledged emergency hospital, even after Mj\u00f8ssjukehuset is built.  The hospital in Elverum will continue to offer emergency internal medicine, but with an emphasis on planned surgery and rehabilitation, a so-called elective hospital.  Hospitals in both Gj\u00f8vik and Hamar will be closed when the new hospital at Mj\u00f8sbrua in Moelv is ready.  Tynset hospital remains, and is part of Sjukehuset Innlandet.
