The Helios Klinikum Erfurt is a hospital of maximum care in the Thuringian capital of Erfurt and academic teaching hospital of the University of Jena . It is part of Helios Kliniken GmbH, a division of the Fresenius healthcare group . With 1,282 beds and more than 30 different departments, it is the largest clinic in the city.
The clinic emerged in 1994 from the Erfurt Medical Academy, which was developed as a university institution.
history
The Erfurt Hospital emerged from the municipal hospital that was founded in 1880. At that time there was a Catholic and a Protestant hospital in Erfurt, but their capacities were no longer sufficient. A general, non- denominational city hospital was supposed to address these problems. The then chief doctor of the Protestant hospital, EA Brehme, was commissioned to work out the construction plans. By 1882, eleven buildings in the pavilion system were built on a site on the northern edge of the city , including z. B. an isolation pavilion for contagious diseases, a director's house, an administration building and a dining and laundry room. The garrison hospital built between 1894 and 1896 was later included in the area.
As more and more beds were needed as the city grew, a number of other pavilions were built before the First World War . In the 1920s, a three-story surgery building (1926–1928) was added, which at the time was considered the most modern in Germany. At the end of the 1930s, a building for internal medicine was built, which was supposed to form only one wing of a large future clinic, which was then no longer built because the war began. During the Second World War , the municipal hospitals also served as reserve hospitals.
On July 20, 1954, the Ministry of Health decided to found a new medical university institution in Erfurt (as in Dresden and Magdeburg in the same year), the Erfurt Medical Academy . The existing clinics formed the basis, and the Medical Academy was ceremoniously opened on September 7th. In order to meet the requirements of a medical university institution, various structural measures were carried out. With new buildings for the fields of pathology , ear, nose and throat medicine and ophthalmology, as well as the establishment of lecture halls and various institutions, the Erfurt Medical Academy established itself as a clinical training center for doctors. Neurology and psychiatry were now also represented . The children's, dermatological and gynecological clinic and the orthopedic clinic were located outside. With the affiliation of a medical college in 1961, middle medical staff could be trained. In 1975 the stomatology (dentistry) section was added.
When the government and state parliament decided in November 1992 to close the Medical University of Erfurt, protests broke out. Opponents feared not only that study conditions and medical care would deteriorate, but also that medical and scientific research would be destroyed. Despite ongoing protests, the Medical Academy was closed in late 1993. Klinikum Erfurt GmbH was founded with the two shareholders of the City of Erfurt (initially 51% of the shares) and the Gesellschaft für Klinikmanagement (Berlin-) Teltow . In 1997, Helios Kliniken GmbH initially acquired 51 percent of the shares, the rest followed in 2002.
With the aim of maintaining the Erfurt Clinic for the city and region of Central Thuringia as an efficient hospital providing maximum care, further investments were made. Until 1998, new buildings for the nuclear medicine and radiation therapy departments were built on the clinic premises. With the construction of the surgical center, all surgical departments were united under one roof. A center for women, mothers and children has moved into the previous surgery clinic (women's and children's clinic). Gastroenterology, endocrinology, diabetology, hematology, oncology, nephrology, dermatology and the thorax center are located in the reconstructed building for internal medicine (formerly ENT and eye clinic). In 2003 the woman-mother-child center opened with a level 1 perinatal center, obstetrics and neonatology. The conversion of four wards into a private clinic was also completed this year. When the social pediatric center moved to Nordhäuser Strasse in 2004, the entire hospital was united on one site.
In the following years there were repeated new construction and renovation measures. A palliative care ward and an external Montessori kindergarten were set up, the adult and child and adolescent psychiatry and the center for geriatrics (geriatric medicine ) moved into new premises. In February 2011 there was a big move on the clinic premises: the pharmacy integrated in the clinic, one of the largest in Thuringia, which also supplies three other Helios clinics and the emergency services in the surrounding area, found a new domicile with modern laboratories and a technical one after 66 years Drug dispensing. The emergency center was rebuilt in the first half of 2013. A waiting area and new examination and treatment rooms were created. In June 2015 the audiology center was opened in the cafeteria building. Hearing and balance disorders can be diagnosed and treated in the high-tech laboratories. One of three Helios simulation centers nationwide was also built in the cafeteria building in 2015. Doctors and nurses can practice standard and emergency situations under real conditions with the help of patient simulators and under the guidance of instructors. At the beginning of 2016, a hybrid operating room was opened in which radiologists, vascular surgeons and cardiologists can operate together.

Hospital hygiene
The hospital's hygiene guidelines are based on a holistic Helios concept. This combines the requirements of the Infection Protection Act , the Robert Koch Institute and the Thuringian Hygiene Ordinance, paired with guidelines for internal implementation. In addition, the Helios group records more pathogens than prescribed. In Erfurt, the implementation of the hygiene concept is currently ensured by eight hygiene specialists under the medical direction of Dr. Claudia Höpner, supported by 67 hygiene officers and 26 hygiene officers. In 2016, an antibiotic stewardship team was also introduced in the clinic. This team advises doctors on substance selection, dosage, type of application and duration of treatment, i.e. on the rational use of antibiotics in order to improve the quality of treatment and minimize the development of resistance .
Helios is the only clinic operator in Germany to publish the number of pathogens in its clinics every six months in "HygieneEinBlick". The three most important germ groups MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ), VRE (vancomycin-resistant enterococci) and MRGN (multi-resistant gram-negative rods) are also publicly identified here for the Helios Klinikum Erfurt . In this way, it is possible to see how many patients have already brought the pathogen into the clinic and how many patients have acquired it during their stay in the clinic.
