When your child is admitted to our hospital, you will be provided with a “guest bed” in the Department of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine so that you can stay overnight with your child. Parents who have been admitted as medically necessary caregivers are eligible to receive meals (limited to one parent) at no additional cost, covered by their health insurance. Generally, health insurance plans cover the admission of one parent as a medically necessary caregiver during the preschool years. Parents accompanying their children who are not admitted as medically necessary caregivers can order meals to be delivered to the ward. Please inform the nursing staff of this in advance. Meal tokens for breakfast (€2.50), lunch (€6.00), and dinner (€4.00) can be purchased at a discounted price through the Information Desk. (As of July 2021)

We would appreciate it if you would take the time to provide us with constructive feedback, which will help us continue to improve.

She coordinates a patient’s admission date and ensures that everything is prepared for their stay. This includes accommodating requests regarding room assignments, such as a comfort room. All appointments necessary as part of the hospital treatment are coordinated. She also handles discharge and the transition from the hospital back to the patient’s own home or to a facility providing further care.

We take data protection very seriously. We treat your personal information and documents as strictly confidential. We process and store your data only to the extent necessary for the provision of your treatment. Your data is primarily processed and archived automatically. Data is disclosed to third parties exclusively on the basis of a legal provision (e.g., the data transfer to statutory health insurance as stipulated in Section 301 of the German Social Code, Book V [SGB V], for the billing of treatment) or after you have consented to the disclosure (e.g., a discharge letter to your primary care physician). Whenever possible, your data is processed anonymously (e.g., for internal statistical analyses). Once the storage of the data is no longer necessary, it is deleted. We have implemented technical and organizational security measures to protect your data from loss, destruction, manipulation, and unauthorized access. You have the right to request information about the data stored regarding you.

Information regarding the electronic patient record (ePA)

(pursuant to Sections 346, 347, 348 of the German Social Code, Book V)

Dear Patients, 

this information applies to you if you have an electronic patient record (ePA). The ePA is a record that is solely your responsibility. This means that you alone decide whether information is stored in your ePA, who may view and access it, and whether information is deleted.

Storage of particularly important information, unless you object

If you are already using an ePA, please let us know. We will store certain information about your current treatment that is particularly important in your ePA. You do not need to request this from us. We will do this automatically for you. This includes, among other things, the following information regarding your current stay or treatment with us:

• Data on laboratory results,
• Reports from diagnostic imaging,
• Reports from medical examinations and procedures, and
• discharge summaries/physician’s letters.

The same applies if we have information from previous treatments at our facility and it seems appropriate to us, in light of your ongoing medical care, to also store this in your ePA.

If you do not wish for this information to be transferred and stored in your ePA, we will of course not do so. Please let us know! Thank you very much! 

Transfer and storage of additional information in the ePA at your request

If you would like additional information beyond the above-mentioned details to be stored in your ePA, please let us know! Provided we collect and electronically process this information as part of your current treatment, we will also store it in your ePA. 

Electronic emergency data

Electronic emergency data can also be stored in your ePA as soon as this is technically possible. If we change any information in your emergency data as part of your current treatment, we will also update the emergency data stored in your ePA. 

Right to object, erasure, or restriction 

You have the right to object to the storage of information in your ePA. 

In addition, you can delete any information stored in your ePA or entered by us yourself.

Instead of deletion, you can also restrict editing or readability. A “restriction” offers the advantage that the information is stored in your ePA and can be used by you, but cannot be viewed by everyone or only by you. You alone decide whether only you can see all the information or who can view which information. You can set this yourself via your smartphone, PC, laptop, or similar device.

Documents Made Visible Later

If information in your ePA is not visible to us at the time of admission to our facility because our access is restricted, please note the following: If information that was not visible to us at the time of admission is made visible to us at a later date, we will not receive any notification of this. 

Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions.

You will find an information sheet about fees in your patient information folder.

Discharge management provides important support for follow-up care after a hospital stay, especially for older and single individuals. For many patients, treatment does not end on the day of discharge; they continue to require what is known as follow-up care.

The organization of follow-up care through discharge management includes, among other things:
• Medications and a certificate of incapacity for work
• Assistive devices, e.g., walking aids
• Medical care provided by a general practitioner or specialist in
private practice • Home care provided by a nursing service
• Inpatient care in a nursing facility
• Rehabilitation stays

By providing early assistance and measures, the goal is to ensure as seamless a transition as possible to follow-up care.

Your discharge has been medically authorized. You will receive your discharge summary and a preliminary medical report on your ward. If you have not yet paid your copayment, you can do so at the Patient Administration office.

The food service assistants ask patients about their meal preferences on weekdays, the day before. Each day, you can choose from three different lunch options: regular meals, light meals, and vegetarian meals. Unless patients have dietary restrictions due to specific diets or medical tests, they are free to choose from the available options. They may also substitute individual components within the menu options.

In the event of dietary restrictions, the basis of the lunch menu is always Menu 2 (“light full-course meal”). In this case, your choice of components is unfortunately somewhat limited. For breakfast and dinner, the GPR Clinic offers patients either various options to choose from, or you can order à la carte and put together your own breakfast and dinner. The selection has been expanded to include a Mediterranean option as well as Turkish baked goods.

See GPR Mobile Meal Service

Each bed has its own terminal (screen) that can be used to control the telephone, television, and radio.

The GPR Clinic has a comprehensive patient communication system. 

You can inquire about the fees for using these services at the information desk.

Shortly before your discharge, the nursing assistant on the ward will give you a patient questionnaire. You can drop your completed questionnaire directly into the suggestion and complaint box on the ward. We are pleased if you were satisfied with our care, but we also appreciate constructive criticism. We would appreciate it if you would answer our questions! If you provide your contact information on the questionnaire, we will be happy to reach out to you for further clarification.

The patient’s perspective provides valuable insights into the quality of care at the hospital and can highlight areas for improvement. The CLINOTEL hospital network, of which the GPR Clinic is a member, therefore tracks patient satisfaction at its member hospitals through an ongoing patient survey and publishes the results on its website.

On the third Saturday of every month, health-related lectures are held in our cafeteria starting at 10:15 a.m. Before that, you can enjoy a hearty breakfast buffet starting at 8:30 a.m. for €10.50, including drinks (as of September 2023).

Please use the lockers built into the wardrobes to store your personal valuables (or, in exceptional cases, deposit your valuables, keys, and identification documents at the Information Desk in exchange for a receipt). Please note that GPR Klinikum is liable only for valuables deposited in exchange for a signature. Your ward team will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

GPR Klinikum has a comprehensive patient communication system. 

Please note that these services (TV, radio, telephone, and Wi-Fi) are subject to a fee and can only be booked as a package.

You can inquire about the usage fees at the Information Desk. 

If necessary, please purchase a ticket at our Information Desk before your procedure

You are welcome to pay the copayment of €10 per calendar day (up to a maximum of 28 days) during business hours at our Patient Administration office (Level 1, to the right of the Emergency Department, counters B and C). We will then forward it to your health insurance provider. However, you also have the option of transferring the amount directly to your health insurance provider.
