The Klinikum Dortmund gGmbH , formerly Städtische Kliniken Dortmund , before Urban hospitals Dortmund , is one of the largest hospitals in North Rhine-Westphalia and the fourth largest municipal hospital in Germany. It covers all medical specialties except for organ transplantation and psychiatry.
There are 28 specialist clinics with 1,440 beds at the Clinic Center Middle and Clinic Center North . The clinic has 4,500 employees (including 565 doctors and 1,290 nurses) and treated 68,000 inpatients and 180,000 outpatients in 2017.
The Dortmund Municipal Clinics were opened in 1876 under the name Luisen-Hospital. A nursing school with a two-year training was established at this hospital as early as 1909 . Today seven different apprenticeships are offered by the in-house AkademieDo. The clinic is the largest training company in Dortmund.
The Dortmund Clinic has been an academic teaching hospital of the Westphalian Wilhelms University in Münster since 1976 .
History of the clinic
In 1876, today's Dortmund Clinic was opened under the name Luisen-Hospital at the time. The hospital had 200 beds and had a surgical and an internal department. The ear, nose and throat, skin and gynecological clinics were added by 1906. Furthermore, a nerve station could be set up through a private donation. The initially relatively small hospital developed over time into a metropolitan hospital. With the specialist departments of the eye clinic and orthopedics under Max Brandes , the clinic continued to expand. In 1930 the new building for the children's clinic with around 200 beds was opened.
During the National Socialist era , the Nazis drove out all of the hospital's Jewish doctors. In 1937 the clinic merged with what was then the Dortmund Brothers Hospital. It was the first time that it had a urology department and 2,250 beds. During the Second World War , the air raids on Dortmund destroyed most of the hospitals. Under Max Brandes as Medical Director , reconstruction began in 1945 at the central and northern locations, and was completed in the mid-1960s. In addition, at the beginning of the 1950s, some specialist departments moved into the old barracks on Westfalendamm . The clinic now had 2,222 beds. The prosecution was one of the largest in West Germany. In 1954 it received a new building designed by Friedrich Boemke .
The clinic on Westfalendamm was built in 1952 in some old barracks buildings from the 1930s, which were used by the occupiers after the war. In 1950 the barracks buildings were released for clinical operations and finally put into operation in 1951/1952 after extensive renovations. Hospital operations continued there until 2004. When the long-awaited new clinic in the north of Dortmund was ready for occupancy, all specialist departments moved from Westfalendamm to the north clinic. The old barracks buildings were then completely demolished within a very short time.
After a new medical clinic went into operation at the north location in 1979, the children's clinics in the Dortmund districts of Derne and Lücklemberg were closed in 1983 and 1984. 25 years later, the clinic expanded its north location with another new building, so that the location on Westfalendamm also became superfluous. As early as 2007, the clinic made further investments and built a logistics center with parking spaces, its own kitchen, sterilization, sterile storage and parts of the administration. The Institute for Transfusion Medicine, Laboratory Medicine and Microbiology was also completed in the same year.
In 1994, on the initiative of H.-U. Langendorff founded the “Dortmunder Hautbank eV”, the first skin bank of its kind in Germany up to that point.
In 2008, work began on a new central operations and functional center (ZOPF) at the Mitte Clinic Center. The first areas in this new building, including a new emergency room, were opened in April 2012, followed by the commissioning of the twelve new operating theaters and an intensive care unit in May 2012. A total of 94 million euros were invested in the new building.
In 2014 the clinic made a profit of 3.6 million euros for the first time in its 15-year history as a GmbH due to a patient increase of 10 percent. This means that the municipal maximum supplier was able to continue its positive trend from the previous year. While the house had a loss of 6 million euros in 2012, a surplus of almost 900,000 euros was generated in the first year of renovation in 2013 (under new management). This positive trend continued in 2015; the annual financial statements showed an increase of EUR 4.9 million.
In 2014, after a one-year period, the Dortmund Clinic took stock of the second opinion center set up at the beginning of 2013. According to this, almost 350 patients contacted the center in one year with a request for a second opinion; 80 percent of the cases were patients who had an orthopedic concern.
At the beginning of 2016, the Dortmund Clinic founded the “Dortmund Patient College”; the model for free advanced training specifically for patients has since been promoted nationwide with the Essen Catholic Clinic.
The triple osteotomy for the treatment of hip dysplasia was developed in Dortmund and is a standard procedure used worldwide today.
