Nursing at the Klinikum Dritter Orden

From the first day of the patient’s stay until he or she is discharged, the patient is the focus of our activity. Our task is to ensure the nursing care as regards the general and special nursing of adults and children. A key component is looking after our patients holistically, considering their individual feelings, concerns and needs. A fundamental principle of our work is respect for human dignity – regardless of nationality, gender and social standing – based on a Christian conception of man.

We see nursing as qualified, patient-oriented care that plays its part in maintaining or restoring health, easing pains and improving quality of life. We combine that with careful support in borderline situations and at the end of life. Our nursing services encompass giving advice, support and assistance in sickness, disability and old age. Preserving your independence is very important to us. We make sure that as far as possible your family members can be involved in the nursing care. This applies in particular to looking after and nursing your child in the Paediatric Clinic. Through regular ongoing professional training courses we maintain the quality of nursing and a high level of specialist expertise of our staff.
