The President of the University Prof. Paul Pauli: “The university and the teaching hospital have found an excellent solution to maintain the trauma outpatient clinic and its range of treatments. The operation will continue until mid-2023 at its current location in Pleicherwall in the university lecture halls and then at the teaching hospital. This allows for uninterrupted care for individuals seeking help in the trauma ambulance. Despite this, the operation of the university’s outpatient clinic for psychotherapy on Markusstrasse continues.”
“This ensures continuity for patients in the trauma clinic. From 1 August, the team of the trauma outpatient clinic will carry out its tasks in the adult psychiatric ward of the UKW in Margarete-Höppel-Platz. Until then, we can conclude the contractual settlements and also implement the necessary structural measures. This means that the care offer for people from Würzburg and the region will be maintained and will also be closely integrated into the care structures of the Medical University of Würzburg in the future,” says Professor Dr. Jens Maschmann, Medical Director of the university hospital in Würzburg The university hospital and the university also underline: This transfer of the trauma surgery to the university hospital takes place against the backdrop of organizational changes that will come into force in summer 2023. A solution was found here which also offers a of long-term supply for affected patients.Unfortunately, “third-party speculation about the financial reasons for this restructuring” had angered patients.
With the current solution, these could eventually be eliminated. Concrete details about the move in the summer of 2023 and contact options would be communicated in good time by the university hospital. Trauma Ambulance can be reached via the above contact options until the end of July.
Since September 2021, the trauma ambulance has been offering severely traumatized people, for example through acts of violence, an appointment for an initial consultation and therapy advice.
