The University Hospital Augsburg Süd (formerly Klinikum Süd or Haunstetten Hospital ) is a maximum care hospital in association with the University Hospital Augsburg , which is located in the Augsburg district of Haunstetten .
history
The Kommerzienrat Georg Käß enabled the Haunstetten community to purchase a plot of land on the edge of the Siebentischwald with a generous donation , thus creating the conditions for the establishment of a hospital. For a long time the Jägerhaus (also called Bayerhäusl ), a popular excursion restaurant with the citizens , had been on this property . After the purchase in 1897, the building on the property was converted into a hospital. After the renovation work was completed, the hospital opened on January 12, 1900 with a capacity of 40 beds.
In the 1960s, negotiations and planning began for a modern new building for the hospital not far from the existing hospital. After a four-year construction period, the new hospital with 156 beds finally opened on March 9, 1968. Two years later, the sponsorship changed from the city of Haunstetten to the Augsburg Hospital Association . The old hospital was demolished in the spring of 1969.
In the years 1997 to 2010 extensive renovation measures were carried out in several construction phases. On January 1st, 2000, the Haunstetten Hospital formed an independent municipal company together with the Augsburg Clinic. After the integration into the Central Clinic , the hospital was renamed the Augsburg South Clinic on January 1, 2006 . Since January 1, 2019, it has been part of the newly founded University Hospital Augsburg.
present
After extensive renovation and modernization, a total of 168 beds are now available for inpatient treatment in the Augsburg South Clinic . It meets the requirements of a maximum care hospital, but has specialized in surgery , dermatology, ear, nose and throat medicine and internal medicine . On the other hand, the department for gynecology and obstetrics , led by attending physicians , was prematurely dissolved in October 2005, as the Bavarian State Ministry for Labor and Social Affairs, Family and Women ordered that for economic reasons there should no longer be duplication in this area.
The hospital is supported by the city and district of Augsburg in the Augsburg Hospital Association and is run as an independent municipal company together with the Augsburg University Hospital and the Children's Clinic - both located in the Kriegshaber district.
The hospital is also used to accommodate emergencies in the fields of dermatology and ear, nose and throat medicine ; The ambulance service in the Augsburg metropolitan area also follows this principle . The Augsburg University Hospital is the primary point of contact for all other emergencies. Patients from the main areas of the Klinikum Süd are often relocated here for further inpatient treatment after initial treatment at the Augsburg Clinic.
location
The hospital is located on the eastern edge of the Haunstetten district of Augsburg on Sauerbruchstrasse. A chargeable parking lot is available on the clinic premises for those arriving by car. The access is signposted from the B17 exit “Augsburg-Haunstetten / Inningen”. Alternatively, the hospital can be reached with city bus line 24 (stop: “Klinikum Süd”).
