Overview
The Clinic for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Psychosomatics and Psychotherapy (German: Klinik für Kinder- und Jugendpsychiatrie, Psychosomatik und Psychotherapie) is a specialist clinical department within Städtisches Klinikum Karlsruhe, the largest hospital in Germany's Middle Upper Rhine region. It is located at Südliche Hildapromenade 7 in Karlsruhe and is led by chief physician Meike Bottlender. The clinic is part of the hospital's psychiatric clinics group and is designated in the Baden-Württemberg hospital plan as part of a maximum-care facility (Haus der Maximalversorgung) and a teaching hospital of the University of Freiburg. The clinic's discipline covers the prevention, diagnosis and therapy of psychiatric, psychosomatic and neuropsychiatric disorders in children and adolescents. It treats the full spectrum of child and adolescent psychiatric conditions, including patients with psychological reactions to acute stress as well as chronically ill children and adolescents. Excluded from its services are drug detoxification treatments and treatments of behavioural disorders that primarily require pedagogical interventions. The clinic maintains close cooperation with neighbouring medical disciplines such as paediatrics and adult psychiatry. The clinic offers both full inpatient and day-clinic treatment places. Its services are rounded out by an institute and emergency outpatient clinic, a transition centre, and cooperation within a therapeutic residential group for girls with anorexia nervosa. Regular treatments can be provided regardless of the patient's place of residence. In emergency and crisis situations, the clinic is responsible for emergency care for the city and district of Karlsruhe. As part of Städtisches Klinikum Karlsruhe, the clinic operates within a large municipal hospital that treats approximately 55,000 inpatients and around 196,000 outpatients per year, with 1,596 planned beds and places, 22 clinics, five institutes, a blood donation centre, a central emergency department and a children's emergency department. The hospital is managed by commercial director Markus Heming and medical director Prof. Dr. med. Dr. oec. Martin Holderried. The clinic itself is a sub-brand of the hospital rather than a separately incorporated company, and it is owned and operated by the municipal hospital.
