Social counselling and care transition

In order to guarantee further medical treatment and nursing care after the inpatient stay, we offer our patients a structured discharge management with their consent. The social counselling or nursing transfers then sit down with our patients and, if desired, with their relatives to discuss and organise further care.

Strong together!

Sometimes patients need social counselling and also the transition of care. For example, if before the start of a rehab the patient can be discharged home - and help is needed there. No problem. We are a team and work closely together.

Data protection

Already at the time of admission to hospital, you will be asked for written consent to discharge management and the associated transfer of data, e.g. to nursing services.

Strong together!
