After the Krankenhaus GmbH has signaled its interest in taking over the district clinic in Wolfratshausen under certain circumstances, the waves are now blowing high.
The district administrator of the Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen district, Josef Niedermaier, reacted abusively to the offer.
District
- The press release sent by Niedermaier (Free Voters) begins angrily: “What is this about? What the managing director of the hospital GmbH of the neighboring district says in today's issue not only annoys me immensely, but is also absolutely dubious and unfriendly! "
It goes on just as angry.
Background: The Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen district had set up a steering committee to determine the future of the district clinic in Wolfratshausen.
The clear tenor of the opinion: A carrier or operator who is “willing and able to take responsibility for the management and operation of the district clinic” should be sought.
The local newspaper then asked Thomas Lippmann, managing director of the Weilheim-Schongau GmbH hospital, whether they would like to get involved in Wolfratshausen.
Lippmann expressed interest, but also named conditions.
"Questionable methods of poaching staff from surrounding clinics"
The key requirement was that the Tölzer district council should act in a similar way to its colleagues from the Weilheim-Schongau district. I mean: The quality of medical care must be in the foreground, if it shows a minus at the end of the year, the responsible district - in the Wolfratshausen case, Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen - compensates for it. That obviously upsets the local district administrator Josef Niedermaier. He can be quoted in his press release as follows: “The remote diagnosis to which Mr. Lippmann feels called is unheard of and dishonest. These statements come from someone from the communal family who tries to poach staff from surrounding clinics with questionable methods and, in our experience, knows hardly any inhibitions. The photos from the flyers,I still have those that were distributed in front of the clinical facilities in the district. ”The barrel is full for him, says Niedermaier:“ With these statements, Lippmann is now crossing a limit that I will not tolerate. I will urge my official colleague in Weilheim-Schongau to put her managing director in his place. "
Grants like those in the Weilheim-Schongau district are "difficult to imagine" for Tölzer
It would be difficult for Niedermaier to imagine a cooperation with a managing director, "who in his business is dependent on an annual subsidy of between 7.5 and 10 million euros from district funds": "Such sums in the district budget would deprive our district of any ability to act."
Weilheim's district administrator reacts calmly: "Score with quality and service"
The district administrator of the Weilheim-Schongau district, Andrea Jochner-Weiß, did not want to comment directly on the irregularities of her Tölz colleague yesterday: “We are all responsible for our own houses.
I can say that our hospitals score with quality and service. "
Otherwise she does not interfere in the debate that is being carried out in the Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen district. "We only said that we would listen to it when someone came to us with an offer - no more and no less." Nothing has changed about that: "We can talk to each other."
