New hospice opened in Böblingen: a place of dignity and consolation
On Tuesday afternoon, the ceremonial inauguration of a new inpatient hospice in Talstrasse in Böblingen took place. The facility offers space for up to eight guests and is therefore an important step in patient care at the end of life. Invited guests had the opportunity to visit the hospice that accompanied the terminally ill people in the last phase of life, as szbz.de reported.
The choice of location near the Böblinger train station enables good accessibility for relatives and visitors. Andrea Thiele, the spokeswoman for the board, spoke at the opening of the challenges associated with the establishment of the hospice. This facility is not just a building, but a protected space that is supposed to supply people in the last phase of life with dignity, freedom of pain and security, adds [am-lebensende.de] (https://am-lebensende.de/das-hospiz-als- Ganzitige-des-des-sterbenden-menschen/).
a place of security
The new hospice pursues holistic care that focuses on physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs of the patients. Relatives are intensively involved and supported in order to enable the patient a dignified end of life in a quiet environment.
In contrast to palliative medicine, which can already be used in earlier stages of the disease, the hospice is aimed specifically at people with limited life expectancy due to incurable diseases. Patients who need a medical certificate and the approval of the person concerned or his legal representative have access to the hospice. Registration usually takes place via the family doctor or the hospital.invitation to the open day
For interested parties, an open house will be held on Saturday, July 5th. This offers the opportunity to find out about the offers and services of the hospice. The philosophy of the hospice movement is based on the right to dignify and pain -free dying, and the new Böblingen hospice is the ideal oasis to implement these values.
The financing of the hospice stay is mainly carried out by statutory health and long-term care funds, which cover 95 % of the inpatient costs. Hospices are also dependent on donations and voluntary work, which still supports and adds the valuable work on site.
Overall, the new hospice in Böblingen offers an important and necessary service for society by creating a place where people can live and die in dignity, surrounded by their loved ones and in a supportive environment.
