The Ottakring Clinic ( Wilhelminenspital until 2020 ) in the 16th district of Vienna , Montleartstraße 37, is one of the urban Viennese hospitals managed by the Vienna Health Association.

Hospitals under one name

Today's clinic in Ottakring developed from the following historical institutions:

  • kk Wilhelminenspital
  • Municipal Kaiser Franz Joseph Government Anniversary Children's Hospital
  • Georg Kellermann Children's Hospital
  • War Hospital No. 1 (World War I)

After the Second World War, two hospitals were integrated into the Wilhelminenspital:

Historic Wilhelminenspital

To mark the 40-year anniversary of emperor Franz Joseph I in 1888 was community Ottakring of Princess Wilhelmine Montleart-Saxony-Courland , an amount of 150,000 guilders (since the changeover in 1892: 300,000 crowns) dedicated to the construction of a hospital; the princess was named after the hospital and also for the Montleartstraße, which was named after her in 1889 .

Initially, the community acquired an area of ​​15,000 m² and began construction work on the first pavilion in 1890 . During this time, Ottakring was incorporated into Vienna, which was decided in 1890 and completed on January 1, 1892.

On the basis of an agreement between the municipality of Vienna and the state of Lower Austria dated December 1, 1891, the hospitals in the suburbs that were just incorporated were established in 1892

taken over by the city of Vienna.

In 1894, at the request of the Imperial and Royal Governor of Lower Austria , Erich Graf Kielmansegg , the Viennese city administration acquired an adjacent plot of almost 200,000 m² in order to be able to expand the hospital later.

Ten years later, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the emperor's reign, the Vienna City Council decided on February 11, 1898 to celebrate this anniversary, to set up a children's hospital at the kk Wilhelminenspital with 180 to 200 beds for infectious children.

In an agreement with the Imperial and Royal Lower Austrian Lieutenancy, it was determined that the Lieutenancy would be responsible for building, equipping and running the hospital. The City of Vienna, for its part, transferred a total of 2 million crowns in line with the progress of construction, waived the canal confluence fees, connected the hospital to the first Viennese spring water pipeline and ensured the connection to the Vienna tram network.

On the wall along the Flötzersteig, east of the former main entrance, there is a figure of the National Allegory Austria protecting the care of sick children to commemorate the establishment of this children's hospital . The inscription on the obelisk with "1848–1898" refers to the 50th anniversary of the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph I.

Georg Kellermann Children's Hospital

Marie Bernbacher, heiress of Georg Kellermann, followed the deceased's wish and set up a foundation to build a children's hospital in the 7th district or one of the neighboring districts. Since the costs of the land there would have exceeded the foundation capital, the hospital was built in agreement with Ms. Bernbacher on the site of the Wilhelminenspital. It comprised two pavilions, and part of the costs for the supply buildings (administration building, kitchen, etc.) were covered.

The Georg Kellermann Children's Hospital Foundation, approved by the Lower Austrian Lieutenancy on June 11, 1901, still exists today. Your earnings benefit the Vienna Hospital Association . The Viennese control office puts the dividends made between 2000 and 2004 at around 11,600 euros.

War Hospital No. 1

During the First World War , the War Hospital No. 1 was built south of the Flötzersteig in the form of a barrack camp. In 1932 these barracks were replaced by pavilions on the hospital grounds.

Karolinen Children's Hospital

The Karolinen Children's Hospital goes back to the foundation made in 1874 by Karoline Riedl of a house converted into a children's hospital with 24 beds in Schubertgasse 23 on Alsergrund , which was opened in 1879.

In 1977 the Vienna City Council decided to close the children's hospital and relocate the departments to the Wilhelminenspital.

The Caroline Riedl'sche Children's Hospital Foundation, approved by the Lower Austrian Lieutenancy on December 22, 1880 , still exists today. Your earnings benefit the Vienna Hospital Association . The Vienna Control Office puts the distributions made between 2000 and 2004 at around 91,200 euros.

Glanzing Children's Hospital

The Glanzing Children's Clinic was opened in 1915 in Vienna- Döbling in the Glanzinggasse, from where it got its name. In April 1999 it was transferred to the children's hospital in Glanzing with neonatology and adolescent medicine in the Wilhelminenspital as a department for paediatrics .

Wilhelminenspital: Babynest Glanzing

In order to enable babies to be put away as gently as possible, the first such facility in Austria was the Glanzing baby nest installed at the Wilhelminenspital in October 2008 . The Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine at the Glanzing Children's Hospital at the Wilhelminenspital is responsible for looking after the newborns that are put away here.

history

Lupus Pavilion entrance hall

The hospital, which was expanded several times by the First World War, was built on the foothills of the Gallitzinberg or Wilhelminenberg in the pavilion system, as was customary for larger hospital facilities at that time (e.g. the nearby Otto Wagner Hospital, which was built at the same time ). The individual pavilions are surrounded by green spaces.

From Otto Wagner 's plans for the 1910-1913 built originate lupus pavilion at Flötzersteig where Eduard Lang combating tuberculosis of the skin initiated. A bust that was unveiled on September 9, 1953 commemorates Richard Volk , the director of this lupus sanctuary (1918 to 1938), who died while emigrating to Mexico in 1945 .

The Wilhelminenspital survived the Second World War relatively lightly, so that the damage was soon repaired. In 1953/1954 the first extensions were built after the end of the war: a nurses 'home and a nurses' school.

On the basis of a municipal council resolution , the hospital was expanded in 1959 to include a medical and a surgical pavilion with 280 beds each and four outpatient departments , an X-ray institute with an isotope outpatient clinic and an infirmary as well as a cobalt bunker , an asylum pharmacy , as well as a further nurses' house and a management and administration building with an attached building Dining room expanded so that the number of beds increased to 1,800.

In 1977 the Karolinen Children's Hospital (see above) was integrated into the Wilhelminenspital. In 1985 the city of Vienna's first company kindergarten was opened here. In addition to the kindergarten run by the Kinderfreunde between 6.30 a.m. and 7.30 p.m. , there is a night family group with six places, which is run by the hospital itself, in order to be able to look after children of night shift workers.

In the 1990s the oncological center was expanded, an underground car park and a new company building were built. Here, 1,400 patients and up to 700 employees of the Wilhelminenspital and the Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Spital , also located in the west of Vienna, can be cared for from a new hospital kitchen . In 1999 the Glanzing children's clinic was relocated to the Wilhelminenspital.

To increase safety for pilots, patients and residents, the safety conditions of the landing area for rescue helicopters have been improved by enlarging the approach lane and increasing the lighting.

In 2005 the Wilhelminenspital switched to digital image processing of X-rays . A dialysis center was opened in 2008 ; 32 dialysis places are now available instead of the previous 20.

The opening of a newly built surgical center, planned for spring 2017, is shaky due to water damage that occurred in the course of construction work.

statistics

In 2013 (figures from 2009 in brackets) the Wilhelminenspital had 1081 (1089) systemized beds. 47,803 (47,229) inpatients (including 12,243 (10,264) day care) and 447,209 (445,401) outpatient customers were looked after by 3,058 (2989) employees. In addition, 1582 (1508) births were recorded.
