The pediatric emergency practice in Bielefeld is currently working to the limit – the professional association of pediatricians in Bielefeld is now drawing attention to this. The current contagion situation and the lack of pediatricians combine.
Last weekend’s influx blew all previous dimensions. Spokesman Marcus Heidemann says the three shifts of the Bielefeld pediatricians can’t really make it. He urgently calls for measures by which insurance companies and politicians support doctors if they want doctors to keep the service.
The emergency practice for children and young people in the children’s center is the first point of contact outside office hours for all emergency treatment of children and young people which is carried out by a registered pediatrician. It is located in the Bethel Children’s Center, right next to the Children’s and Youth Emergency Department of the Gilead I Evangelical Clinic.
