Family and Health Day on May 10 at the GPR Clinic - information, action and entertainment for young and old
On Sunday, May 10, 2026, the GPR Clinic, together with the self-help groups and the Groß-Gerau Self-Help Office, cordially invites you to this year’s Family and Health Day. The event will take place from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Levels 1 and 2 of the GPR Clinic and is held under the patronage of Mayor Patrick Burghardt.
The focus is on strengthening self-help: Numerous self-help groups will present their services and be available to visitors for personal conversations. The program is complemented by a diverse range of expert presentations as well as an entertaining supporting program for the whole family. The team at Café Stolz will provide refreshments.
The Family and Health Day at the GPR Clinic offers a diverse program that combines psychosocial and medical topics with hands-on activities. Following the welcome and a panel discussion on ways to combat loneliness, there will be expert lectures on menopausal symptoms, pelvic floor weakness, the risk of falls associated with spinal problems, and the risks of secondhand smoke exposure in childhood. The informational offerings are complemented by presentations on addiction, depression, nutrition, and dietary approaches, including a tasting station. Active relaxation is provided by a relaxation session and a line dancing workshop for participants.
There’s plenty for the little guests, too: At the popular Teddy Clinic, doctors and nurses take care of injured stuffed animals and dolls—a tried-and-true program that playfully helps children overcome their fear of visiting the hospital. Clown doctors and a painting station round out the children’s program.
The event begins at 11:00 a.m. with a welcome address by the GPR management. This will be followed by a varied program designed to be both informative and entertaining. The closing ceremony will take place around 3:50 p.m.
All interested residents of Rüsselsheim and the surrounding area are cordially invited to visit the GPR Clinic, learn more, talk with experts, and spend an enjoyable day with the whole family.
