Citizens' Initiative Calls for Modernisation and Improvements at Solingen Municipal Hospital

The Citizens' Initiative for Solingen (BfS) is advocating for a comprehensive realignment of the Municipal Hospital Solingen, in response to growing discontent among patients due to long waiting times and overcrowded facilities.

Martin Bender, the BfS's candidate for Lord Mayor, has expressed his commitment to ensuring that people in Solingen can once again trust their hospital. He believes that the current situation is unacceptable and that urgent improvements are needed to provide reliable and quick medical care.

The BfS is pushing for better staffing at the hospital, improved working conditions, and adequate resources for the hospital staff to ensure they can provide the best possible care to patients. Overworked and stressed employees due to staff shortages, shift work, and a constantly increasing number of patients are a major concern.

The BfS demands transparent processes for patients and relatives, with a focus on preserving regular and basic hospital services, opposing fragmentation of staff through service companies, and urging a restructuring that improves patient care, ensures more efficient processing, and supports future-oriented development, while maintaining financial viability and workforce unity.

Specific detailed demands include rejecting restructuring models that split employees and cautious handling of service reorganization to avoid future financial and operational inefficiencies. The BfS regularly receives reports from patients who had to spend several hours in the emergency room or were significantly delayed for specialist appointments.

Martin Bender emphasises that a strong municipal hospital is crucial for healthcare in Solingen. He supports the hospital staff and wants to ensure that they can work under conditions that allow them to provide the best possible care to patients. The BfS wants a more citizen-friendly, efficient, and future-oriented hospital that prioritises patient care and satisfaction.

In conclusion, the BfS is calling for modern structures to facilitate medical daily life, reduce waiting times, and improve working conditions for hospital staff in Solingen. The organisation believes that these changes are necessary to ensure that the Municipal Hospital Solingen can once again become a trusted and reliable healthcare provider for the people of Solingen.
