The medical technology company Getinge today celebrates International Nurses Day by paying special attention to nurses during the extreme COVID-19 times. In a newly started partnership with WaterAid, the aim is for nurses around the world to have access to clean and running water.

Getinge has signed a temporary agreement with Scania CV AB on personnel support during 2020. Until year-end, Getinge will temporary hire a limited number of Scania personnel to support the needed ramp up of ventilator production at Getinge’s production site in Solna, Sweden.
