The Overall Concept of the University Medical Center Freiburg
Humanity and Medical Care
Care of the human being is the focus of our attention. We endeavour to customise care to the individual patient. Moreover, we respect the autonomy and rights of the patient to participate in his/her medical care and make efforts to inform and consult with the patient and his/her relatives. By doing so, we ensure the best possible medical and nursing care and give a human touch to modern medicine.
Communication and Collaboration
We accomplish our objectives by close collaboration with both medical and nonmedical groups and with the understanding that we are a member of a multi-professional team. A supportive and appreciative atmosphere is one of the main pillars of a successful collaboration. As members of the staff, we are committed to contributing our skills and abilities to support the goals of the University Medical Center Freiburg and naturally, to benefit our patients. Our collaboration with our health care partners includes a constant and active communication within and outside of the Medical Center and we regard this communication to be of great importance for improving services for our patients.
Innovation and Development
We belong to a group of top research and teaching universities in Germany. Our scientists and physicians engage in modern research which serves the basis for innovative diagnostics, therapeutics and rehabilitation processes for our patients. In addition, ongoing development of new concepts and organisations within all sectors of the Medical Center confers a competitive position in today's medical environment.
Expertise and Education
To ensure the high quality of our services, we employ up to date concepts and methods for personnel development. We offer incentives for continued personal and professional development to all our staff members. We have a responsibility to create a positive work environment where our employees fulfill tasks with excellence. It is our endeavour to make decisions with a maximum of transparency and to delegate responsibility to promote esprit de corps.
Responsibility to the Community and Environment
As the largest employer of the people of Südbaden in the Black Forrest region of Germany, the University Medical Center Freiburg is aware of its responsibility to the community and environment. Conservation and ecological issues are important to us and is reflected by our economical and sparing use of resources. To protect the environment, we attempt to apply the newest, engery efficient methods and therefore contribute to the high quality of living in Freiburg.
