The Gemeinschaftskrankenhaus Herdecke (GKH) [Herdecke Community Hospital] is a hospital in the city of Herdecke in the district of Westende in Germany. The GKH is a cooperating hospital of the University of Witten-Herdecke. It is specialised in the field of integrative medicine with a focus on anthroposophic medicine.
History
The hospital was inaugurated in 1969 and was the first anthroposophically oriented hospital in Germany. One of the main founders of the hospital was Gerhard Kienle (1923-1983).[1] A main motive in the social design of the founding period was flat hierarchies without chief physicians and head nurses.[1][2] Kienle intended to create a university in association with the hospital. This led to the founding of Witten/Herdecke University.
Research and education
The hospital hosts five integrative medical professorships/chairs:
- Integrative neuromedicine (Wolfram Scharbrodt)
- Integrative pediatrics (Alfred Längler)
- Quality of life/spirituality/coping (Arndt Büssing)
- Education, Training and Continuing Education in Anthroposophic Medicine (Friedrich Edelhäuser)
- Gerhard Kienle Chair of Medical Theory, Integrative and Anthroposophic Medicine (David Martin)
For medical students of Witten/Herdecke University there is an Integrated Curriculum for Anthroposophic Medicine (ICURAM)[3]. A similar program exists for students of psychology [Integrated Companion Program in Spiritual and Anthroposophical Psychology (IBAP)].[4]
