The Sankt Katharinen Krankenhaus Frankfurt am Main is a Catholic-run acute care hospital with a focus on basic medical care, characterized by a personal atmosphere and short distances. With 280 planned beds and specialized departments such as surgery, geriatrics, internal medicine (cardiology, gastroenterology), neurology and urology, it provides care for over 10,000 patients annually. The hospital actively participates in the emergency care of the city and also offers numerous medical-nursing services such as physiotherapy, autologous blood donation, hearing diagnostics and medical foot care[1][5][6][8].
The main mission of the Sankt Katharinen Krankenhaus is the holistic care of patients based on the Christian values of charity and human dignity, based on the example of Regina Protmann, the founder of the Katharinenschwestern. The focus is on the person as a whole, not just their illness, which is reflected in the atmosphere and commitment of the employees and nuns. In addition to medical treatment, pastoral care, spiritual support and close cooperation with self-help groups are an integral part of the range of services[2][4][5].
Sustainability and social responsibility are demonstrated at the Sankt Katharinen Krankenhaus through comprehensive patient management, which ensures seamless continued care even after the hospital stay. Patients are advised and supported at an early stage, for example to organize follow-up rehabilitation or outpatient care. In addition, attention is paid to resource-saving care and the dignity of people in all processes. The involvement of social services and close cooperation with other care institutions underline the sustainable care concept. The hospital also has modern technical equipment with a wide range of services that make the stay comfortable and patient-oriented[5][7].
In addition, the hospital is part of a broader network of Catholic-social institutions in Frankfurt, such as the Seniorenwohnstift Oberrad, which provides high-quality housing and care services for older people. This connection with other social institutions complements the hospital's care portfolio and contributes to sustainable healthcare in the region[3].
