Your rehabilitation is safe
Regulations and hygienic measures due to COVID-19
Please be informed about our admission and visitor regulations regarding the current COVID-19 pandemic:
Before the admission
-
The International Office supports you in all issues related to the organization of the patient’s admission at our clinic (writing invitation letters addressed to the German embassy for visa issues, organising your transport from the airport to the clinic, supporting with accommodation, writing confirmations for medical necessity of the rehabilitation). Our team is also your local personal contact during your stay.
- Please let us know before the arrival if you have been vaccinated against COVID-19. If you have already been vaccinated (Biontech, Moderna, J&J or Astrazeneca), a proof for your vaccination is required. Please provide your vaccination certificate.
- In case of a previous COVID-19 infection, a medical certificate confirming the recovery from the acute COVID-19 infection is required. In addition, a SARS-CoV-2-IgG-antibody test is required.
-
If you have not been vaccinated yet, a negative SARS-CoV-2-PCR-test result upon admission is required, which is not older than 24 hours. Furthermore, you need a medical certificate, confirming that there are no signs of a COVID-19 infection.
-
In case of a positive COVID-19 test, the admission to our clinic has to be postponed until the patient recovers from the acute COVID-19-infection.
-
If you have not been vaccinated but wish to receive a vaccination (Biontech), please inform the International Office or your physician in charge upon admission.
Admission quarantine
-
During the first approx. 5 days, the patient will be isolated and will undergo two COVID-19 tests on the first and fifth day of the admission. Testing for multiresistant bacteria will also be performed. During that period, the patient has to stay in his room. The therapies will take place in the patient room. If the tests are negative, the quarantine will be terminated. In case of the detection of multiresistant bacteria, hygienic safety measures will permanently be in effect (according to the findings) and have to be respected at all times.

Persons traveling from “areas of variant of concern” are required to be quarantined for 14 days. Persons who have recently (min. 21 days and max. 3 months) recovered from a COVID-19-Infection are exempted from this rule, but have to provide proof (including a PCR finding) of this past infection.
