Welcome to our website

Our Nursing is based on the MHH mission statement and the nursing concept of Hannover Medical School. It is planned, carried out and evaluated in a patient-oriented manner, taking into account the psychosocial situation. We are responsible for 7-10 patients at any one time as part of our nursing care.

Accommodation on our normal ward is in single, double and triple rooms, all of which have a bathroom with toilet and shower.

Our nursing team consists of full-time and part-time registered nurses (some with additional qualifications). They specialize in Nursing patients before and after cardiac and vascular surgery, as well as patients with radiological interventions.

Participation in internal and external training is an integral part of our Human Resources. The HTTG Clinical Department offers its employees its own training program to ensure a high standard of safety and care. An induction concept has been developed for new employees, which includes an introductory circle with planned work shadowing in the various areas of HTTG.

The aim is to provide our patients with the best possible nursing and medical care and to prepare them and their relatives for the changed living conditions at home.

We ensure continuous care by working in a three-shift system in order to restore the well-being and health of our patients through interdisciplinary cooperation.

Work shadowing and internships are possible to a limited extent. Early application to the Nursing Services office with a complete application is essential.
