The University Hospital Bonn ( UKB ) as an independent institution under public law (AöR) is the successor to the previous medical facilities of the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn . The UKB takes on health care tasks including high-performance medicine in the public health system. It ensures patient care for research and teaching at the Medical Faculty of the University of Bonn. The majority of the clinics, institutes and teaching facilities are located on Bonn's Venusberg , directly on the Kottenforst nature reserve .
With around 37 clinics and 31 institutes as well as 8,000 employees (5,316.68 full-time employees) of which 993.20 are doctors (calculated as full-time employees), the UKB is one of the largest employers in Bonn . Every year around 50,000 inpatients and around 35,000 emergencies are cared for at the UKB, and over 350,000 outpatient treatments are carried out.
history
From 1776 medical chairs were set up at the Maxische Akademie and later the Electoral University of Bonn (1784–1798), the forerunner of today's university, which was newly founded in 1818. Not only Rhenish professors but also professors from France and Vienna were appointed to these positions. After the occupation of the Rhineland by the French and the subsequent seizure of power by the Prussians, they re-founded the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn in 1818 - with chairs a. a. for medicine, surgery and obstetrics. For this purpose, clinics for (internal) medicine, surgery and obstetrics were built in the rooms of the former electoral palace, then as now the main university building at the Hofgarten. Due to the increased space requirements, these clinics later moved to new buildings in the German Empire in the Theaterstrasse in the area of today's Beethovenhalle.
After it was destroyed by an air raid on October 18, 1944, parts of the clinic were moved to the bunker in Dransdorfer Berg . As a result, it was decided to expand the flak barracks on the Venusberg and to move the clinic there permanently. Work began in 1946, and on November 28, 1949, the surgical and medical clinic on the Venusberg could begin regular operations. Other clinics such as the children's clinic, the medical polyclinic and the dental clinic remained in the valley.
The medical faculty continued to grow with various new specialties, some in its own clinics. In order to meet modern requirements, the University Hospital Bonn was converted into an institution under public law on January 1, 2001.
Planning
The university is currently planning to restructure and centralize its locations. In this context, the university location on the Venusberg is to be strengthened, in the plans of the city and university it is designated as Campus Venusberg. It is planned to relocate the polyclinic and children's clinic there, so that only the center for dentistry, oral and maxillofacial medicine remains in the city center.
The winning design for the new parent-child center (ELKI) was decided in an architecture competition, which will essentially replace the rooms and functions of the Adenauerallee children's clinic and merge them with obstetrics. The previous location of the children's clinic in Adenauerallee in the Bonn city area is in dire need of renovation and is uneconomical due to the 6.5 km distance from the banks of the Rhine to the Venusberg campus and the existing and shared health care structures in operation.
The Wilhelmstrasse location with the former medical outpatient clinic was vacated and taken out of service. Among other things, this required the creation of replacement areas for laboratories and the creation of new practical rooms for physiology in anatomy on Nussallee. Previously, numerous functions had been relocated to the Venusberg in recent years, in particular to the new ZIM building, the BMZ I and the temple building .
In 2008, the Federal Ministry of Education and Research announced that the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) would be established in Bonn , in which internationally leading research on diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's will take place. This center of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers will be built on the Venusberg and will work there closely with the University Hospital Bonn, the caesar research center , the Max Planck Institute for Aging Research in Cologne and the Helmholtz Research Center Jülich .
