VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic Hattingen

VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic Hattingen has been providing rehabilitation services in the private sector since 1993. According to the research institute FactField, in cooperation with FOCUS magazine, the rehabilitation center won the award in the field of neurology for the 7th time and was recognized as the best rehabilitation center in Germany. About 500 staff members work to ensure rapid recovery, maximum safety, and resolution of the most complex cases of restorative care. 210 places are in the building for adults and 60 pediatric beds. In addition, the clinic has an intensive care unit for early post-acute patients and a neuropsychiatric rehabilitation unit with a closed ward and guarded garden that is spatially and therapeutically integrated. A multidisciplinary team of therapists, neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, and nurses provides high-quality round-the-clock care. Supervision options include the full spectrum of neurosurgical and neurological intensive rehabilitation, including mechanical ventilation. Also, high-precision diagnostics are available thanks to X-rays, color dopplerography of cerebral vessels,, and magnetic resonance imaging. With the help of bedside monitors, pulse, blood pressure, and oxygen intake are monitored. In the specialized department of neuropsychiatric rehabilitation, patients with organic cerebral psychosyndromes of all degrees of severity are treated, especially in severe states of disorientation and confusion, severe memory disorders, and psychomotor restlessness.  The most significant advantage and uniqueness of Hattingen VAMED Rehabilitation Clinic is robotic therapy: Erigo (to improve blood circulation and muscle function), Lokomat (to improve clarity, stability, and speed of gait), and Andago (to reduce the risk of falling). In addition, Armeo Spring and Armeo Spring pediatric for arms training allow the brain to adapt through intensive, repetitive robotic exercises. Thus, thanks to numerous work simulators, the medical center has the opportunity to receive patients with paralysis, after strokes and brain injuries, with multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and cerebral palsy. The bed exercise bike also restores the functions of the lower limbs, strengthens the lung functions, activates the metabolism, and reduces such complications as bedsores caused by the lying position. Garden therapy is integral to the therapy concept in the neurology, neurosurgery, and neuropediatrics rehabilitation centers. Injured people returning to life after accidents or serious illnesses can feel a bit of nature again after weeks or months in clinics. The rehabilitation center of neurology, neurosurgery, and neuropediatrics serves children, adolescents, and adults at all stages of rehabilitation. Modern technologies and highly equipped departments contribute to faster restoration than the average rate of similar clinics. Furthermore, thanks to continuous development and international recognition, the VAMED Rehabilitation Center in Hattingen accepts the most complex cases worldwide.
