Coordination efforts should be provided as needed within healthcare and consist of personal support, internal coordination, and collaboration with other stakeholders. Appropriate, timely, and secure sick leave means that it is a conscious part of treatment. It is issued based on the right indications and according to local and national guidelines, including the National Board of Health and Welfare's decision support.
