Medical Association: Traumatized refugees need help – Baden-Württemberg

Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) – The psychotherapeutic care of traumatized refugees in Baden-Württemberg leaves a lot to be desired, according to the State Chamber of Physicians and State Psychotherapists. This emerges from the 3rd report on the care of traumatized refugees, which the organizations presented on Human Rights Day (December 10) in Stuttgart.

Too long waiting times for a therapy place, no outpatient offers and lack of staff in psychiatric facilities are the main problems. The chambers see the corona pandemic as an additional obstacle. Loneliness, depression and fear of the future are likely to hit those hard who have no social network due to their insecure residence and who struggle with communication difficulties.
