Nursing at the clinic
Relief for caregivers
Failure management - completely flexible
The central float pool is an element of the absenteeism management introduced by the employer and serves to compensate for longer-term absences from the 15th day onwards.
To this end, employees in the central float pool work their way into various nursing areas of the hospital.
As an employee of the Central Float Pool, you enjoy special benefits. These are, for example:
- 3 additional days off
- Working according to a desired duty schedule
- Monthly float pool bonus.
Service staff
With our service we support the nursing staff and contribute to their well-being!
As a central service area of nursing, the service team is the point of contact for all aspects of patient catering and forms the interface to the central and dietary kitchen.
The core tasks include patient food supply with the daily menu request and the provision of the optional service. In addition, they ensure the implementation of the legal requirements of food law as well as the specifications of the hygiene and HACCP manual of the hospital in the ward and patient kitchens as well as in the food supply.
Nursing staff ratio
Survey of the nursing staff ratio (PPQ):
Nursing staffing at the UKT significantly above the national average
The Nursing Staff Strengthening Act (PpSG) came into force on January 1, 2019. The aim of the law is to establish better staffing levels and working conditions in nursing and geriatric care. In this context, the so-called nursing staff quotient (PPQ) in German hospitals was determined for the first time for the year 2020. The University Hospital of Tübingen performs above average and is among the 15 percent of hospitals in Germany with the best staffing levels in nursing.
The nursing staff ratio for Tübingen University Hospital is 49.78. This means that, statistically speaking, one nurse in Tübingen looks after an average of 50 patients per year from admission to discharge. In Germany, the mean value of the facilities surveyed is 68.01.
UPDATE: In the second survey, the UKT also performed above average and was able to improve the value of about ten percent!
