Families

No, Truls doesn't talk, but he gets happy when the kids talk to him or when he gets a hug.

He always has a friend with him who helps him speak.

Under "Family Activities," you can see when Truls will be there next. Hope to see you then.

You’ll find our family room in the service corridor next to the food court. There are armchairs here where you can relax for a while and perhaps breastfeed in a slightly more private setting. There’s a play area for siblings and a microwave if you need to heat up food. If you need to change a diaper, there are two changing tables and trash cans. There’s also a lower-height toilet adapted for small children, as well as a toilet for adults.

We have two fun playgrounds here.

One is located in the family room next to the restrooms by the food court, and the other is by Espresso House.

Come join us and let your inner child run free!

Service

Bergvik uses video surveillance in the shopping center to prevent crime and provide law enforcement agencies with greater support in solving crimes. Bergvik is authorized to conduct video surveillance in accordance with video surveillance guidelines, the Video Surveillance Act, and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

To achieve this purpose, video footage is stored and may be handed over to law enforcement authorities in connection with suspected criminal activity. The camera footage is used solely for this purpose, and access to the camera system is limited to the shopping center’s security guards only.

We use your personal information in connection with the shopping center’s video surveillance. For information about where the data is stored, please contact the shopping center management at olof.ljungberg@newsec.se. Recorded footage is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose of the camera system, which is 7 days.

Signs informing visitors about video surveillance are clearly posted at each entrance. These signs include contact information for the facility’s data controller. If you are dissatisfied with how Bergvik conducts its video surveillance, please contact the mall management. Complaints may also be submitted to the responsible authority, the Swedish Data Protection Authority (IMY), via the following link here.

Our photo booth is located across the street from Kjell & Company. Here, you can take photos for driver’s license renewals, ID cards, and more. The photo session is user-friendly, high-quality, and takes about 3 minutes.

There are 6 defibrillators here at Bergvik.

1. By the restrooms next to Systembolaget.

2. At Stora Coop.

3. Near the restrooms next to the food court.

4. At the downtown office.

5. Next to Espresso House.

6. At Ica Maxi.

A defibrillator is used when a person is unconscious and not breathing. Before the defibrillator arrives, begin CPR and call 112.

How to use an AED:
1. Turn on the AED.
2. Attach the electrodes to the chest; once both are in place, the AED analyzes the heart rhythm.
3. The AED may give two recommendations: defibrillation or CPR.
4. A shock may be delivered if the defibrillator detects ventricular fibrillation during the analysis.
5. Continue CPR if ventricular fibrillation is not detected, and continue as long as the person is not breathing normally.

After a defibrillation shock has been administered, perform CPR for two minutes, after which the defibrillator reanalyzes the heart rhythm and, if necessary, instructs you to deliver another shock, followed by CPR for two minutes. This is repeated until the person shows clear signs of life or until help arrives. It is important to continue as long as the person shows no signs of life.
