Quality | Universitätsklinikum Tübingen

Quality concept

Continuous improvement and high-quality service provision in the areas of health care, research and teaching characterise the quality concept at the University Hospital Tübingen. Impulses from the workforce, results from quality assurance measures and comparisons with others form the basis on which improvements are initiated. Knowledge and skills are exchanged and further developed in interdisciplinary, multi-professional teams and networks. For this purpose, methods and instruments from quality management are used professionally. This creates a lively culture of learning and togetherness.

Hygiene

Maximum care houses require a full-time hospital hygienist. The hospital hygienist's task is to record and analyse any nosocomial (i.e. hospital-acquired) infections in cooperation with the hygiene specialists and the physicians in charge of hygiene in the clinic, to develop preventive measures, to translate them into practicable rules and to monitor their observance. He coordinates proactive measures to prevent and control antibiotic-resistant infectious agents in the clinic. As communication partner of the Public Health Service, he is in charge of the interface to the supervisory authorities and is also a member of the Hygiene Commission according to the Hospital Hygiene Ordinance Baden-Württemberg.

Transplantation and organ donation

Dealing with relatives in order to possibly bring about a decision on organ donation is a highly sensitive task that requires a lot of empathy and sensitivity and is therefore performed by specially trained doctors. In order to guarantee the legal obligations as well as the claim of the University Hospital as a supraregional transplant centre, a Senior Transplantation Officer has been appointed by the Board of Directors of the Hospital, who is supported by other transplantation officers in the relevant clinical areas.

The task of transplantation officers is to sensitize medical and nursing staff, patients and relatives as well as the public to the importance and urgent necessity of organ donation and to define and continuously optimize internal procedures for organ donation.
