Ward 24 is a special ward with a therapy concept expressly developed for the treatment of depressive illnesses. Depressive illnesses lead to impaired thinking, feelings and the ability to act. Since depressions have many different causes and, depending on the person, can be more biological, psychological or caused by special life circumstances, the therapeutic offer is adapted to the causes, the symptomatology, the severity of the illness and the changes in the course of the therapy process.
The aim of the treatment is to regain a zest for life with increasing distance from depressive thoughts, to rediscover skills and abilities that were thought to be lost, to be able to take up tasks in work and everyday life and to resume neglected social contacts.
