Fagareds ungdomshem, Social rehabilitation center in Lindome, Sweden
Fagareds ungdomshem is a residential care facility with departments at three locations: Gothenburg, Lindome, and Öxnevalla, providing therapeutic support for young boys who are no longer in school and facing social challenges. Medical staff including nurses, psychiatric consultants, and neuropsychiatric specialists deliver comprehensive healthcare services to residents.
The center began operations in March 1941 following a relocation from Vrångsholmen, initially functioning as a vocational school for youth rehabilitation. It evolved over time to become a comprehensive therapeutic facility serving young people with complex social needs.
The center creates structured daily routines with educational activities and tailored treatment programs that support young people in social reintegration. Staff work directly with residents through everyday activities and personalized care to help them develop new skills and confidence.
The facility operates across three separate locations, so visitors should clarify in advance which department they need to visit. Specialized staff work across all locations to provide consistent support and coordinate services for residents.
The center operates a substantial fleet of vehicles to support its three locations and daily operations. This transportation infrastructure allows the facility to move residents between departments and facilitate external activities and appointments.
