Since 1960/61 it has resided in a new building at Orchideenstieg 14 in Hamburg-Alsterdorf . It has around 180 beds. The hospital includes a medical clinic, a surgical clinic and anesthesiology / intensive care medicine. A hospice, several specialist practices and other healthcare providers are located at the Israelite Hospital.
The Israelite Hospital was built between 1841 and 1843 in Hamburg-Sankt Pauli , initially with 80 beds, and operated there until 1939 as the “ Hospital of the German-Israelite Congregation, built in memory of Blessed Betty Heine in memory of her husband ” .
history
founding
At the founding meeting on November 10, 1839, Salomon Heine offered to donate the amount of 80,000 marks required to build a hospital. The hospital was to be given his name and an inscription to his late wife Betty Heine nee. Goldschmidt (1777–1837) remember. Funds still available from an earlier collection from 1817 were to be used for the interior decoration. A plaque in the prayer room should point out the founder and be looked after until “forever” .
On June 16, 1841, the foundation stone was laid on the site of the former Pesthof on Hamburger Berg , which was laid out in 1606 and which the city made available. The design came from Johann Hinrich Klees-Wülbern (1800–1845), who also took over the construction management and was also involved in the construction of the New Israelite Temple in Poolstrasse. On September 7, 1843, the hospital was put into operation. Salomon Heine died on December 23, 1844.
The hospital saw itself as an “ institute for the reception, feeding and healing of Israelite sick people of all ages and genders ”, but treated patients of all denominations. In 1864 his financial situation worsened as a result of the emancipation of the Jews in Hamburg. The associated abolition of compulsory membership in the Jewish community led to a decline in income. In this situation, Salomon Heine's son Carl Heine (January 20, 1810 - July 4, 1865) offered 341,200 Mark Banco in “good government paper”, the interest of which was supposed to cover the running costs of the hospital. After his death, the Jewish community and the hospital agreed on November 22, 1865 a new version of the statutes, which handed over the administration of the hospital to a collegium (later: board of trustees ).
In 1866 and 1889, the hospital acquired legal capacity as a mild foundation by resolution of the Hamburg Senate . The street running towards the house from the south was named Heinestrasse in 1869. The era of National Socialism did not survive this street name. The street has been called Hamburger Berg since 1938.
At the end of the 19th century, up to 112 inpatients could be treated. The polyclinic, which opened in 1880, was moved to a pavilion in 1891. An extension followed in 1897, and in 1901 pavilions were set up for an infirmary and an isolation ward. In 1904, the old building from 1841/1843 was comprehensively renovated with the installation of central heating and new toilets. In 1906 a sister house was built, which was enlarged in 1915.
20th century
The Jewish community in Hamburg had almost 20,000 members at the beginning of the 20th century. The 1st and 2nd class beds in the Israelite Hospital reserved for self-payers were occupied by more Christians than Jews. In 1913 the hospital had a total of around 140 beds. During the First World War it became a reserve hospital with 173 beds, more than half of which were occupied by war participants. In 1927 there were about 125 beds, but often up to 140 patients were treated. In 1929 a five-story extension was built for the surgical station. In 1930, the interior department in the main building was rebuilt and the main street-side entrance was moved from the middle of the building to the end of the east wing. The hospital now had a total of 230 beds.
After 1933 it continued to exist with great difficulty. State disability systematically undermined his financial base. In 1933 60% of the patients were not Jewish, in 1937, however, only 22.4%. By 1940 the number of billed care days had decreased by more than half. As early as 1933, the attached nursing school had to be closed by order.
In September 1939, under the pressure of the circumstances, an agreement was reached between the Jewish community, the Israelite hospital and the state. The remaining assets, buildings and real estate were transferred to the state; In return, he waived interest claims and other outstanding debts.
Two Hamburg buildings at Johnsallee 54 and 68 acted as makeshift replacements, since 1942 only the building at Johnsallee 68. Shortly afterwards, another move was made to the building of the former Jewish nursing home in Hamburg's Schäferkampsallee.
In 1943, the original building, which had been converted into a jaw clinic and a reserve hospital, was badly damaged by air raids and after the war was initially only poorly restored for commercial use. Comprehensive repairs only began in 1987. On September 24, 1991 it was entered in the list of monuments. The building was now used by the central supervision authority, which started work on January 1, 1992. Since 2000 it has served as the customer center of the St. Pauli local office.
In 1946 the independent hospital board of trustees was revived, but the old building was completely unsuitable and it was impossible to return to the ruins, and the situation in Schäferkampsallee was also unsustainable. The Hamburg Senate and the citizenship therefore made a total of more than 4 million DM and a piece of land in Alsterdorf on Orchideenstieg available for a new building. The foundation stone was laid there on May 27, 1959. On December 15, 1960, the then First Mayor Max Brauer said in his speech at the opening of the first construction phase:
“ In my youth there was a saying in my Protestant parents' house: If it's really bad, go to the Jewish hospital! "
On July 15, 1961, the second construction phase was handed over to its destination. In 1981 the house with internal and surgical departments as well as interdisciplinary intensive care unit had 219 beds. From 2002 to 2008 extensive renovation and renovation work was carried out throughout the house. In 2004, the Warburg House was opened as an extension of the existing house, which today houses the new entrance hall, the atrium and stations 1A, 2A and 3A. In the new building opened in 2011 at Orchideenstieg 12, there are several specialist practices and the hospice at the Israelite Hospital with space for nine guests. As a GmbH, the hospice is a subsidiary of the Israelite Hospital Foundation in Hamburg. In 2014 the intensive care unit was expanded, which currently has 12 beds.
Today the Israelite Hospital has around 180 beds. Every year around 7,400 inpatients and 6,500 outpatients are treated.
