The Park-Klinik Weissensee is a private hospital of standard care in the Berlin district of Weissensee of Pankow . It was built in place of the former Weißensee Municipal Hospital , which in turn emerged from a first hospital barrack built on the present site at the end of the 19th century. The Park-Klinik Weißensee also serves as the Charité's academic teaching hospital . Park-Klinik Weißensee GmbH is the operator of the medical facility in Schönstrasse , which opened in 1997 .

history

Today's Park Clinic is the third hospital building on the site on Schönstrasse.

From 1899: Hospital formation and development

As early as 1899, the community of Neu-Weißensee had a sick barrack built at Schönstrasse 61 - between the Weißensee cemetery (No. 51–60) and a horse market (No. 62–68) , which was initially referred to as a hospital. It was under the direction of a nurse. The concentrated accommodation of the sick became necessary in order to be able to provide more targeted medical care for the rapidly growing population of Weißensee and Neu-Weißensee . Until then, a handful of resident doctors and community nurses took care of the residents' well-being “on site” . After that, the Berlin branch of the Patriotic Women's Association formed under the protectorate of Empress Auguste Viktoria collected donations for a permanent hospital building on the neighboring property.

On October 1, 1900, the Auguste Victoria Hospital was inaugurated by the Red Cross (later Auguste-Viktoria- ), located between Schönstrasse and Roelckestrasse . In 1910 the hospital had 120 beds. On April 5, 1913, in the presence of Prince August Wilhelm of Prussia, extensions were opened that connected the two previously existing buildings. In the following years there were further modifications. In 1920 the hospital was renamed the Weißensee Municipal Hospital .

Weißensee Municipal Hospital, Schönstrasse, 1958

After the Second World War , the area of ​​the municipal horse market, which was closed in 1937, was added to the hospital as a park. The area is now bordered by Roelckestrasse (north), Schönstrasse (south), the back of the residential buildings in Gäblerstrasse (west) and the cemetery (east).

From 1948 the first polyclinic with seven specialist departments and a tuberculosis counseling center in East Berlin was built at the Weißensee Hospital on the foundations of the old nurses' house and was opened on March 21, 1951. Between 1954 and 1959 further extensions were built. In 1954 an ear, nose and throat department was opened.

Since 1997: Park Clinic

After the German reunification , the then district of Weißensee sold the property including the corresponding property. The new owners decided to build a state-of-the-art new hospital building and had some of the existing structures in the row of houses on Schönstrasse and on the site demolished.

The new building took place at Schönstraße 80 on the site of the former horse market, right next to the old Weißensee hospital. The symmetrically designed complex consists of a compact quadrangular wing around a spacious inner courtyard with a covered entrance area. The external dimensions of the building ensemble are 82 × 95 meters. Students from the nearby art college in Berlin-Weißensee were involved in the artistic design of the interior. They initiated the installation of generously designed and optimistic pictures and artistic wall elements as well as the erection of sculptures . The historically grown park on the site was integrated into the redesign.

On April 1, 1997, the Park-Klinik Weißensee was opened in the new building at Schönstrasse 80 and took over the medical care contract for the municipal hospital. Most of the medical staff has been transferred to the new facility. The historic building at Schönstrasse 90, one of the extension buildings that was inaugurated in 1913, is used as a medical center by the Park Clinic's medical care center (formerly: Poliklinik).

The ten-year existence of the Park-Klinik Weißensee was not celebrated, but instead donated 10,000 euros to the children's and youth facility Die Arche for the establishment of a first aid room.

Medical spectrum

The Parkklinik maintains numerous specialist departments ( first aid center , surgery , plastic surgery , gynecology , cardiology , ENT , internal medicine , neurology and orthopedics ) in the areas of visceral and minimally invasive surgery , anesthesiology , intensive medicine , imaging diagnostics , colon cancer center , diagnostics laboratory , Trauma surgery , (own) therapy center, aesthetic surgery , hand surgery and inpatient pain therapy . Her special focus is on:

With a social service, a health forum as well as changing art exhibitions in the entrance areas and concerts ("Art as physiotherapy for mind and soul") the recovery process of the patients is mentally supported. The Park of the Senses was created for walks in the park area with touch stones, herb and scented beds or special therapeutic exercise options. There is a close medical and organizational cooperation with the Schlosspark Clinic in Berlin-Charlottenburg.

Directly next to the main building of the actual Park Clinic is a separate medical center, in which various independent contract doctors as well as rheumatologists, a gastroenterologist and two gynecologists carry out outpatient treatments in the clinic-associated medical care center. For non-inpatient aftercare, the clinic management works together with a home nurse.

Administration and some statistics

In 2004, the Park-Klinik Weißensee was the first Berlin hospital for basic and standard care to be certified according to the guidelines of the cooperation for transparency and quality in the health care system (KTQ), and the procedure was successfully repeated at the beginning of 2010.

The Park Clinic operates its own quality management, but it also faces the judgment of the health insurance companies and their members. In November 2011, the clinic was awarded the TK Klinikus Prize by the Techniker Krankenkasse as one of 13 hospitals in Germany.
