The architecture by C. F. Møller Architects is inspired by the ice floes that float in Nuup Kangerlua and the image of Sermitsiaq.

Acute and subacute cases which can't be handled by the available staff, will be conferred with Rigshospitalet in Denmark, to where patients can be evacuated if needed.

The health center is run by specialists in family medicine and registered nurses.
