\u00c1sthildur started working as a secretary at the Health Care Center in Vinnuveri in 1982, but started working at the Fj\u00f6r\u00f0ur Hospital in \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur when it moved to its current premises, where she has worked ever since.
Gu\u00f0r\u00fan started in the kitchen of the old hospital in 1957, then became a waitress, worked as a telephone operator and has been an assistant in occupational therapy for the past few years. Rumor has it that she will even continue to come and play guitar for the old folks just to keep the crowd going.
Helga started working at the hospital at the age of 15. It was in 1955, and as she says herself, she was out drinking and the woman across the street felt sorry for her not having a job and told her to come the next morning to the kitchen at the old hospital. In 1962, she graduated as a nurse and started working here as such on November 2 of the same year, and has worked here ever since - although not as a nurse, but as a nurse and head of the Department of Surgery.
Ingibj\u00f6rg started working at the old hospital in 1963, first as a maid and then as a nurse, who is a nurse today. In recent years, she worked in the hospital's emergency department.
When it is taken into account that these women were allowed to shrink on maternity leave as well as other "shrinks" to other fronts, their combined working hours at Fj\u00f6r\u00f0ungssj\u00fakrah\u00fas and the Health Institute \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0urb\u00e6r, later Vestfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, is 153 years. To put such a number of years in some context, it can be mentioned that in the history of health services in \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, it is said that a doctor was first appointed in 1845, and it has been 164 years since then. So their years of service seem to be as long as the history of medical services in \u00cdsafj\u00f6r\u00f0ur.
The staff of the organization thanks them for their cooperation and togetherness and bids them farewell with respect and gratitude.
