Norwegian (Bokmal) term

fellesfaglig

Norwegian (Bokmal) to English Medical Medical (general) Norwegian medical
Hei!

This is part of a medical report and refers to hospital wards being "fellesfaglig avdelinger". The patient is receiving palliative care. I think I know what the expression means, but am stuck for the appropriate (UK) English term.

Any help, as always, gratefully received!

Kind regards,
Alison.

interdisciplinary?

Enrique can post his 'interdiscplinary' discussion entry as an answer.

What's bothering me is fellesfaglig acting as an adverb, rather than as an adjective, to wit: fellesfaglige avdelinger.

Also 'hybrid operating wards' would - ambiguously - add a questionable surgical spin to a palliative care scene.

Example sentence:

Mobile, multidisciplinary teams take care of the most vulnerable children. Norway Regional Health Authority here for the work they are doing on this

Thanks for your suggestion. The closest I can find - so far, anyway - has been 'general ward'. Is this a possibility?
