history
The St. Vincenz Hospital was founded in 1850 by the parish priest of Limburg, Johann Baptist Diehl, as part of a foundation by the doctor Johann Anton Busch, son of the former mayor Anton Busch . From the establishment of the hospital on the Limburger Lahnufer in 1850 until 1990, the sisters of the Order of the Sisters of Mercy of Saint Vincent de Paul worked in the hospital with both nursing and pastoral care. Indian Nazareth sisters have succeeded them. From 1950 onwards, the hospital with around 100 beds at that time gradually moved into a building on the Schafsberg , which was initially intended to serve as a youth home and was then expanded to become a hospital. In 1959 the new hospital on the Schafsberg was put into operation and by 1972 most of the other buildings belonging to the hospital complex were erected.
On June 20, 1996, there was a major fire in the St. Vincenz Hospital, which was then occupied by 350 patients, and which was at the end of a two-year construction phase for another large section of the building. Although the nursery was completely smoky, no one was harmed.
In 2013, the clinic treated over 20,000 patients each year for the first time and almost 1,000 children were born. The academic teaching hospital runs projects such as B. the therapy concept "Joint Care" in orthopedics , which is unique in Germany besides Berlin . With its logistics and service center, the most modern central pharmacy was put into operation in the ICE area of Hesse in 2013 , from which 24 clinics in the entire region are supplied with medicines. The clinic in Limburg is considered the cornerstone of inpatient and outpatient medical care in the Limburg-Weilburg region and neighboring areas.
