New Alb-Fils Clinic in Göppingen: Safe move for 300 patients!

On Saturday, July 5, 2025, the Alb-Fils Clinic in Göppingen took a significant step into the future: the move to the new, state-of-the-art building on the Eichert was up. With this measure, not only the spatial infrastructure was renewed, but also a new chapter in patient care was also opened. According to SWR comprises all patients and many medical devices that are essential for the high-quality care are.

The transport of around 300 patients was carried out by a dedicated team of transporters and supervisors. These ensured that every patient was rolled over the site in his bed. Converted traffic jams on the elevators in the new building could not be ruled out, but the entire move went quickly and professionally. A specially furnished covered tunnel was helpful to safely lay the patients. In addition, there were separate removals for children and adults in the intensive care unit to take into account the special needs of all patient groups.

logistics with precision

When moving, the patient overpass was not only important. A total of around 9,000 cubic meters had to be postponed on objects, furniture and files. The praise of nursing director Brigitte Käser, who checked each room and closet in the old building before the move of the move, testifies to the meticulous planning of the entire process. Four control stations had been set up to monitor the transport of the patients and to guarantee a smooth process. On the move day, the clinic remained closed to visitors to enable the clinic staff to focus full on patient care. Relatives and friends were asked to do without visits that day so as not to disturb the logistical process.

The new building of the Alb-Fils Clinic is now considered one of the most modern in Germany and impresses with its full digitization. A look at the finances shows that the project was more expensive than originally estimated with a total of 380 million euros. The entire clinic campus even caused costs of 500 million euros. Federal Minister of Health Nina Warken (CDU) praised the investment in health care and emphasized the importance of such modern institutions for the region.

outlook for the future

With the move, however, the question arises of the future of the old clinic building. The district council has to decide what should happen to the old building. There are already plans for a demolition, but it could be complicated by discovering a bat population that lives in the area. The decision about how to proceed with the old building is expected in the fourth quarter and remains exciting.

Overall, the move of the Alb-Fils Clinic shows how important modern medical infrastructure is for health care in the region. The step into the future was realized with the greatest care and commitment, which benefits both the patients and the medical staff. The development of the clinic will continue to be observed, because there is definitely something!
