history

Osnabrück citizens founded the Osnabrück Children's Hospital in 1872 in order to “provide sick and weak children with adequate treatment and food in healthy rooms”. After the city of Osnabrück had initially taken over the sponsorship, this task has been continued by the Children's Hospital Association in Osnabrück since 1879 . The aim was to help socially disadvantaged sick children and adolescents in the region.

Initially, a nurse was hired who initially looked after a few children without medical help. Medical care was taken over by general practitioners. Later the number of nurses increased and doctors were also employed. In the following years, the nursing care allowances from health insurances formed only part of the income. The care rate per child and day was fixed at 75 pfennigs for a long time, even when the costs had already risen to 1.55 marks. Donations should cover the deficits. So recurring bazaars were held every two years, for the first time in 1869 in the deer pharmacy. In the following years they took place in the Großer Club, in the Harmonieclub and then in the Stadthalle in Osnabrück. It was collected in the hospital's house box, the "Gottlieb" - on it was the saying "God loves a happy giver" -. There was money from arbitrators from atonement appointments and wage servants collected at weddings and other festivities for the benefit of the children's hospital. Long-term help also came from the “Polterclub” - in Osnabrück the night robes are popularly called Polter - an association of young girls who regularly did sewing work and knitted stockings.

In the 1990s the first discussions were held between the Osnabrück Children's Hospital and the children's department of the Marienhospital Osnabrück . It was decided to merge both pediatrics into a new, independent children's clinic. The Osnabrück Children's Hospital Association and the Marienhospital Osnabrück GmbH are equal partners in the new Christian Children's Hospital Osnabrück GmbH . On July 1, 2011, the Christian Children's Hospital Osnabrück at Johannis Freiheit 1 went into operation as a center for child and adolescent medicine with 156 beds.

The Children's Hospital Osnabrück am Schölerberg remained as an independent hospital with its inpatient, semi-inpatient and outpatient offers in child and adolescent psychiatry, psychotherapy and psychosomatic medicine and its social pediatric center under the sole sponsorship of the Children's Hospital Association in the properties on Schölerberg and was from not directly affected by the merger.

In December 2011 the planning committee of the Ministry of Social Affairs included an "outsourced day clinic for child and adolescent psychiatry at the location of the Twistringen Clinic of the St. Ansgar Clinic Group with twelve semi-inpatient places" as a branch of the Osnabrück Children's Hospital . This was preceded by the assumption of the clarification center for the Diepholz district as a voluntary commitment by the Osnabrück Children's Hospital since April 2011. The day clinic in Eydelstedt (Diepholz district) was opened as an interim solution in 2013 . In May 2018 the day clinic moved to its permanent location in Twistringen .

Children's Hospital Association

The association collected donations from the citizens of Osnabrück, through which the children's hospital was financed. The members were also involved in the management and organization of the constantly growing institution on a voluntary basis. The board of directors of the association now runs the business as the sponsor of the hospital, the highest body is the general assembly of the association. The association consists of around 250 members. The statutory goal of the association is to promote the health of children and young people in the Osnabrück region.

Free bed fund

In 1876, the free bed fund was set up with funds from a foundation by Mrs. Therese Reinecke and a legacy from Miss Heilmann. Due to the initiatives of the association's board and members, it soon became a custom to donate a free bed from sad or happy events . The social idea of caring for children in need is still carried out today with the help of the free bed fund. This donation fund is now used to provide medical treatment for children and young people from crisis areas and poor regions of the world. Organizations like Friedensdorf International or Hammer Forum send doctors and nurses to needy regions and treat the sick on site. Children who cannot be treated in their home country are brought to Germany and cared for in a network of clinics. After the treatment is over, the children will be picked up and flown back by the above-mentioned organizations. Until June 30, 2011, the treatment of the children from the free bed fund was carried out in pediatrics (pediatric medicine) at the children's hospital in Osnabrück am Schölerberg. Since the pediatric department moved out on July 1, 2011, these children have been treated in the Christian Children's Hospital in Osnabrück. The children's hospital in Osnabrück am Schölerberg forwards the donations from the free bed fund to the Christian children's hospital in Osnabrück.
