My health insurance covers this, as will be for all German citizens. I do not know, how it is for foreigners. |
| Friendliness |
For holiday dialysis, they will be very friendly. For regulars, it sometimes depends on the nurse and her mood. |

In 2015, they moved into a new building. They really take good care, continously check the patients' health and adjust the medication. |
| Reuse | I would not change. |

| Date of use | July 2015 |
| Shifts |
I think one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I was there in the morning shift starting at 7:30 on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. |
| Cleaniness | Very clean |
| Language | Italian with a little German |
| Number of places | 9 |
| Machines | Fresenius 5008 |
| Needles |
Regular needles. They are flexible concerning size and diameter. |
| Blood pressure checking | Every hour automatically |
| Seats | Hospital beds |
| Termination procedure |
As usually I squeezed for 10 minutes. They used special long plasters with a built in absorbent that worked well for me. |
| WLAN |
Yes. A regional Freenet that requires a complicated registration. It did not work for me on the first dialysis day, but worked fine the other two. |
| TV |
Yes, but only Italian breakfast TV. As much as I could see, they have wireless Sennheiser headphones, but I did not use them. |
| Food | 3 packages of Grissini and a coffee |
| Room temperature |
I found it rather pleasant. It was not hot as the outside temperature which was something like 30 C. However, it was also not too cold for me and I am freezing easily during dialysis. Everyone gets a blanket. |
| Transportation |
My hotel was in walking distance. So I did not need any and cannot tell. |
| Payment | Free with an EU health care card |
| Friendliness | Very friendly |
| Comments |
The place seems to be new like the entire hospital. The beds have scales built in. It is all in one room in the hospital, so there is always someone in the room. Usually, there is no physician coming around. |
| Reuse | I will go there again any time. |
