Das Albertinen Haus in Hamburg-Schnelsen is a nationally recognized institution for Altersmedizin and one of the largest centers of its kind in Northern Germany. As part of the Immanuel Albertinen Diakonie – created in 2019 from the merger of the Albertinen Diakoniewerks Hamburg and the Immanuel Diakonie Berlin – it combines innovative medical knowledge with human compassion.[1][2][4]
Das Albertinen Haus offers a modellhaftes Versorgungskonzept that seamlessly combines outpatient and inpatient care with independent living. The core services include:
These are complemented by Präventions- und Gesundheitsförderungsprogramme such as fitness and exercise programs, training on smartphones and tablets, and initiatives for digital participation and intergenerational exchange between young and old. A geriatrische Forschungsabteilung, the Albertinen Akademie for advanced and further training, and the Albertinen Schule for generalist nursing training underscore the innovative approach. Numerous projects in geriatric medicine have received national awards.[1][2]
In the context of the neighboring Albertinen Krankenhaus – Hamburg's largest independent non-profit hospital with 732 beds – the Albertinen Haus benefits from highly specialized services. Around 68,000 patients are treated here annually, with a focus on the leading Herz- und Gefäßzentrum, tumor therapies (e.g. digestive tract, gynecology, urology), treatment of musculoskeletal and neurological diseases, and a popular Geburtszentrum with over 3,000 births annually.[3][5]
The Hauptmission of the Albertinen Haus is: „In besten Händen, dem Leben zuliebe“. It strives for "Best in Class" quality in medicine, care and service, always combined with warm humanity. The guiding principle of the Immanuel Albertinen Diakonie – "We help each other to act as Jesus said: All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them" – shapes the daily actions of doctors, nurses and therapists.[7][9]
A zertifiziertes Qualitätsmanagementsystem for elderly care is based on guidelines from the GKV-Spitzenverband and the Hamburgisches Wohn- und Betreuungsqualitätsgesetz. Regular quality commissions ensure the highest standards.[7]
The Albertinen Haus focuses on nachhaltige Initiativen that take demographic change into account: By 2034, a third of Hamburg's population will be over 60 years old. Newly opened on October 1, 2024, the Albertinen Zentrum fĂĽr Altersmedizin offers 117 beds on four stations, a geriatric day clinic for 35 partial inpatient patients, modern therapy areas with training equipment and a therapy garden. The "short distances" concept promotes interdisciplinary exchange and efficient care.[8]
Through research, training and community engagement, the Albertinen Haus actively contributes to gesunden und aktiven Alterssicherung – innovative, patient-centered and forward-looking.[1][2][8]
