- It has always been our wish that as soon as the infection situation looks better, we will of course open up, we want the families to be together, says Cathrine Albertsson, head of the maternity ward in Kalmar.

Now the routines at BB and outpatient care return to what it was like before the pandemic.

Partners may participate in BB, ultrasound and examinations at the maternity ward as long as they are symptom-free.

- We and outpatient care are followed because they are the same people as us caregivers, says Cathrine Albertsson.

On June 1, the delivery in Växjö opened up for partners again, but they keep outpatient care closed for the time being due to cramped waiting rooms.
