MEDICLIN plans to close the Schlüsselbad Klinik in Bad Peterstal by the end of 2022, subject to the outcome of the consultations with the works council

In its meeting on Friday, the Supervisory Board of MEDICLIN Aktiengesellschaft followed the proposal of the Management Board and the management of MEDICLIN GmbH & Co. KG to close the Schlüsselbad Klinik in Bad Peterstal at the end of 2022, subject to the outcome of the consultations with the works council.

MEDICLIN currently sees no way of continuing to operate the Schlüsselbad Klinik in Bad Peterstal with the required high quality of services in a cost-covering manner. In the opinion of the management bodies, the shortage of skilled workers, especially in the rural region, no longer allows for stable, sustainable further development combined with corresponding investments - the structural structure of the clinic is not sustainable. The already challenging situation of the clinic is exacerbated by an occupancy rate, which is still below the usual occupancy rate due to corona, the high costs caused by inflation and, since July 2022, the termination of protective shielding benefits. "I can assure you that we did not take the decision lightly," emphasises Dr. York Dhein. Member of the Management Board of MEDICLIN.

In the event of closure, MEDICLIN wants to find an amicable solution with the works council that considers the different interests of the employees.

"Our top priority is to continue the employment at other Group locations in the region," says Dr. York Dhein. "The employees of the Schlüsselbad Klinik have worked here for many years with a lot of commitment - we thank them very much for that!"

In the event of closure, patients will be offered suitable alternatives in other Group clinics, so that they can continue to receive treatment of the quality they are accustomed to.
