The Helios Dr. Horst Schmidt Kliniken Wiesbaden is a hospital in Wiesbaden . They are also known by the abbreviation HSK . The Hessian Minister of Social Affairs Horst Schmidt , who died in 1976, gave the clinic its name.
The clinic consists of a total of 25 specialist clinics, 5 institutes and 20 specialized centers as well as a medical care center (MVZ) with six specialist practices. There are currently 2000 employees.
In 2006 the HSK had 2,118 employees. They looked after around 40,000 cases, so it achieved a utilization rate of 85.95%. With its 1,027 beds, it is the fifth largest hospital in Hessen (after the Gießen / Marburg University Hospital , the Kassel Hospital , the Fulda Hospital and the Frankfurt am Main University Hospital ).
history
The Teutonic Order laid the foundation stone for the first clinic in Wiesbaden in 1215. In 1353 a civil hospital was built by Archbishop Gerlach of Mainz . This existed until 1879, and on April 16, 1879, the move into the new municipal hospital on Schwalbacher Strasse followed. It had 160 beds, which for those times was a number corresponding to the size of the city. The hospital suffered from unsanitary conditions.
At the end of the 19th century, Wiesbaden began to experience strong population growth, which made it necessary to expand the clinic. As a result, the number of beds increased to 622 by 1914. Later, by 1930, many jobs and beds had to be cut again for cost reasons. During the Second World War, large parts of what was then the city hospital were destroyed.
The clinic was rebuilt in the post-war period and finally had 940 beds in 1949. In 1972 all construction work on the clinic was stopped because the space was exhausted. In the search for a building site for a new clinic, the Freudenberg, which the city acquired from the federal government, turned out to be suitable.
The groundbreaking ceremony took place on December 2, 1976, and completion on October 18, 1982. The building was named after the Hessian Minister of Social Affairs, Horst Schmidt , who was very committed to building the clinic.
The HSK had a total of 818 beds on these initial days and cost a total of DM 273.035 million. In the first few years no further construction activities were started, in 1992 a neurosurgical clinic was established and in 1993 the training center. After that, among other things, the following were built: the service building, a gynecological clinic and a polyclinic. The HSK last had 990 beds.
In 2012 the city of Wiesbaden sold 49.9% of its shares, which are held by HSK Rhein-Main GmbH, to the listed Rhön-Klinikum group .
In November 2013, the HSK announced that it would close the Wilhelm-Fresenius-Klinik for reasons of cost savings. Dermatology, ophthalmology and surgery were located at this location.
In May 2014, Rhön-Klinikum sold its shares in HSK to Helios Kliniken . The city parliament of Wiesbaden approved this sale and the addition of the name “Helios” as requested by the Helios clinics on May 22, 2014. The city of Wiesbaden kept its shares and remained majority owner.
criticism
On January 11, 2016, the Team Wallraff research program documented serious hygiene deficiencies and other deficiencies in this and other Helios clinics . The Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung wrote that the program brought obvious grievances to light - "so badly that it is exciting and almost painful to watch". Patients lay in the corridors in the emergency room for hours, nurses and doctors suffered from such high stress that one nurse even suffered a faint attack. It is also documented that thin, fast-tearing rubber gloves are used in the clinic to save costs. One employee explained that operations could only be maintained “by really working beyond the power reserves. But at some point it will end. In our clinic we are about to collapse. We're finished. "
