history

The history of the Oldenburg Clinic begins in the 18th century when, on March 1, 1784, charitable citizens of Oldenburg founded the "Institute for the Catering of Sick Households", which consisted of a former military barracks. Until the middle of the 20th century, the rest of the story is based on the histories of the previous hospitals and medical facilities: Peter Friedrich Ludwigs Hospital, midwifery training facility, Elisabeth children's hospital, garrison hospital, Oldenburg women's clinic and state hygiene institute.

1841: Peter Friedrich Ludwigs Hospital

The foundation stone for the Peter Friedrich Ludwigs Hospital (PFL) was laid on November 27, 1838 and inaugurated three years later with 138 beds. The PFL was initially under the supervision of the Grand Ducal Ministry , from 1919 it was under the Free State of Oldenburg . The PFL came into the possession of the city of Oldenburg - and thus under the supervision of the Lord Mayor - in 1938 due to the law on financial equalization between the Reich, the states and the municipalities.

1872: Elisabeth Children's Hospital

From 1872 the Elisabeth Children's Hospital, financed by a foundation, was located in the immediate vicinity of the PFL. In 1953 the children's hospital was relocated to Kreyenbrück in the converted and expanded former officers' mess on Cloppenburger Straße.

1902: State women's clinic

The foundation stone for the development of a gynecological center was laid with the establishment of a midwifery school in 1791. The first school was located in the house of the town midwife Wesche on Staustraße, but remained closed during the French occupation between 1810 and 1813. From 1842 a maternity hospital and school were housed at Haarenstrasse 42, from 1877 on Peterstrasse. In 1902 the midwifery school and maternity department moved into a new building specially built for this purpose at Kanalstrasse 15. In the state women's clinic, 20 to 25 pregnant women and 35 to 40 women who had recently given birth could be cared for. The state-subsidized educational institution trained 12 to 15 midwifery students each year in a six to nine month course.

1950: Kreyenbrück municipal hospitals

In 1950 the surgical department of the PFL moved into the building of the former Kreyenbrück military hospital , which had been there since 1937. The hospital, now known as the Kreyenbrück municipal hospitals, was expanded in 1959 to include the urology department and the Oldenburg women's clinic (the former state women's clinic).

1976: Oldenburg Municipal Clinics

In 1976 the municipal hospitals became the municipal clinics. In 1984 all other departments of the PFL had moved to the new location on Dr.-Eden-Straße. The city council decided in 2007 to rename the street after the doctor and women's rights activist Rahel Straus , as the previous namesake, the doctor Paul Eden, had been involved in forced sterilizations .

2001: Oldenburg Clinic

In 2003 the Elisabeth Children's Hospital moved into a new building on the premises of the clinic, with the new address An den Vossbergen, and in 2008 the clinic for child and adolescent psychiatry and psychotherapy followed in another new building on Brandenburger Straße. The building on Cloppenburger Strasse was demolished in 2012.

From 2000 to 2002 the serial killer Niels Högel was employed as a nurse at the Oldenburg Clinic. The public prosecutor's office initially accused him of 35 murders in the Oldenburg Clinic. Furthermore, he had to answer for a further 63 acts in the Delmenhorst Clinic . In June 2019 Högel was sentenced to life imprisonment; it was found that the guilt was particularly serious. On the basis of the offenses, the police investigated two doctors, a nursing director, a ward manager and the former manager of the clinic for manslaughter by failure to do so. Despite a significant increase in deaths and a large number of suspicions against Högel, the clinic management failed to take action and issued Högel a good job reference with which he then applied in Delmenhorst and continued his series of murders there. Since February 2019, the public prosecutor's office in Oldenburg has been investigating eight witnesses in the murder trial for perjury or false statements.

In 2016, the City Council of Oldenburg decided to change the legal form of the Oldenburg Clinic to an institution under public law .
