Psychiatry of Vestfold Trust

Psychiatry of Vestfold Trust was until 2011 Norway's only health trust which deals solely with psychiatric issues and is based in Vestfold. From 2012 it is a part of Vestfold Hospital.

The psychiatry in Vestfold was separated from Vestfold Hospital in 2000 and is organised in the following sections:

  • Nordre Vestfold DPS (formerly Linde and Grefsrud) - based in Tønsberg and Holmestrand.
  • Søndre Vestfold DPS (formerly Furubakken and Preståsen) - based in Larvik and Sandefjord.
  • Psychiatric medicine. Deals with acute cases, long-term psychiatric treatment, special polyclinics for treatment of ADHD, ECT therapy and help for young people with psychosis.
  • Children and young people's psychiatry (BUPA)
  • The Vestfold Clinic
  • Glenne Centre for autism

The overall head of Psychiatry of Vestfold Trust is currently administrative director Finn Hall.
