The Evangelical Hospital Göttingen-Weende ( EK Weende ) is a 1947 founded, evangelical embossed acute hospital in Göttingen district Weende . With 421 beds (as of 2015), it is the second largest hospital in the city after the Göttingen University Medical Center , whose teaching hospitals have included it since 1977.

It describes itself as a hospital of basic and standard care . In Bovenden - Lenglern there is also a medical care center (MVZ) and a specialist clinic for pneumology , in Göttingen the company has also owned the Neu-Mariahilf hospital since 2014 .

history

The Evangelical Hospital Göttingen-Weende was set up in 1947 in cooperation with the Friedland camp on the premises of a well-known excursion restaurant named after its builder, Christian Friedrich Andreas Rohns , which had served as a hospital during World War II . In 1948 the Evangelical Hospital Göttingen-Rohns had 250 beds with an internal and surgical department. The nursing took Red Cross nurses of the DRC -Mutterhauses Landsberg on the Warta and Hildesheim .

When the restaurant was to be put back into operation in 1950, the hospital with initially 135 beds was relocated to the building of the former SS cavalry school, which had been built in 1937 and served as a concentration camp external command and, after the Second World War, as barracks for British troops .

In 1950, the hospital acquired the barracks from the state and began to expand, despite a termination clause that allowed them to be used again in the Korean War . In 1951 EK Weende already had 355 beds. In the same year a department for dermatology and one for tuberculosis sufferers were established. The name was now "Evangelical Hospital Göttingen-Weende eV".

From 1951 to 1977 nursing was in the hands of the evangelical sisterhood of the deaconess mother house "Ariel" ( Zöckler'sche Anstalten ) . A nursing school was affiliated in the early years, and at the end of 1952 it trained 24 nurses a year. This year, with state, municipal and church support, X-ray diagnostics were expanded, a central laboratory was set up and the construction of our own laundry started. Donations from a circle of friends, who felt obliged to the sick late returners , enabled investments that could not have been financed from the current budget. In 1955 the number of beds increased to up to 400.

In 1958, the Bundeswehr waived the option of using the former barracks for military purposes in the future, so that the buildings could be converted, renovated and modernized, which were no longer in the possession of the federal government from 1961 onwards. In 1963 the nursing school moved to a newly built nurses' home and in 1966 a connecting wing between the internal and surgical departments, which had been under construction since 1964, was opened. A central entrance area was created at the same time. The buildings were also expanded in the following years, and in 1973 the surgical wards were significantly renovated with funds from the Lower Saxony Ministry of Social Affairs .

At the end of 1977, the deaconess mother house Ariel terminated the contract with the hospital, which had existed since 1952, due to a lack of offspring, and in 1980 made two floors of its building available to it. In the same year a new-look was there church hall decorated. In 1982 the foundation stone was laid for a new operating wing with five rooms , which was inaugurated in 1985. This year EK Weende had 370 beds and 480 employees. The following year the extrapulmonary TBC department closed . At the beginning of 1987, the plastic surgery department was set up within the surgery department . In the same year further improvements were made in the inpatient area and a new emblem of the hospital was seen. Planned renovations in the administration area could not be implemented until 1989, so that in the meantime the vacant space could be used for changing art exhibitions , which later took place in the area of ​​the main entrance and in the waiting rooms of the surgical outpatient department and the X-ray department.

The cafeteria opened in 1990 and the hospital celebrated its 40th anniversary since moving into the barracks building. It now had 355 beds, treated 8,700 patients annually with an average occupancy rate of 90%, and employed 584 people, plus 178 in particular student assistants, as the Göttinger Tageblatt reported on November 28, 1990. In the coming year, eight years before it was established in the university clinic, a palliative care ward was set up as a separate area on the internal medicine ward, primarily with the aim of improving the quality of life of cancer pain patients . It was scientifically supervised as part of a model project by the federal government and is still considered exemplary in the hospital sector.

Modern radiological diagnosis found its way into EK Weende in 1993 when a computer and magnetic resonance tomograph were put into operation. In the following year the decision was made to take over the district hospital An der Lieth in Bovenden from the district of Göttingen , which happened at the beginning of 1995. This hospital, also known as the Bovenden-Lenglern Lung Clinic , which focused on pulmonary medicine , was created in 1969 from a home for tuberculosis sufferers, which had been housed in an ammunition plant of the former Wehrmacht since 1949 .

In 2001, a geriatric day clinic with 20 beds was set up as a supplement to inpatient care , the focus of which was to be more on therapy than on nursing and, in particular, aimed at maintaining or improving the self-help ability of older patients and possibly avoiding institutionalized care. In the same year, the hospital received substantial subsidies from the state to renovate its old building. Additional funds were raised in 2006 for the merger with the Lenglern Lung Clinic and in 2009 for the conversion of the radiology department. The latter served to optimize the processes between the emergency room , operating theater and wards. Furthermore, investments were made in a new computed tomograph. In 2013, renovation work in House 1 of the former barracks area was completed and an intermediate care ward was set up as a link between the intensive care unit and the general ward.

The Evangelical Hospital Göttingen-Weende is included in the Lower Saxony hospital plan 2015 as a plan hospital with 421 beds. It is the teaching hospital of the Göttingen University Medical Center and treats (as of 2014) 37,500 outpatients and 18,400 inpatients per year. There is a weaning station and a sleep laboratory in Bovenden-Lenglern .

A merger with the New Bethlehem Hospital had been planned since 2010, but ultimately failed. In 2014 EK Weende was in negotiations with the goal of taking over the Catholic- run, financially troubled Göttingen hospital Neu-Mariahilf with 118 beds. Preliminary contracts were drawn up, and the approval of the carriers for the sale to EK Weende became public in March 2014.

After the death of the last deaconess, House 3 was torn down in summer 2019 to make way for a new building in the same place. The pneumology and weaning station from Lenglern will be housed there.
