Operating theatres and intensive care unit service centre

"People are at the centre of everything we do. Their physical and psychological well-being is of great concern to us before, during and after the operation." Dr Daniela Gresch, Chief Physician and Head of the Operating Theatre and Intensive Care Unit Service Centre

The operating theatres and intensive care unit service centre supports the surgical disciplines with experienced and highly qualified staff. We take care of anaesthesia, instrument care, intensive care and sterile processing. Nursing and medical teams accompany you safely and competently through the hospitalisation phase surrounding the operation and attach great importance to ensuring that all hygiene regulations are met.

We are also there for you for outpatient procedures

The number of outpatient procedures has increased in recent years. This presents us with organisational challenges. As the hospital stay of patients undergoing an outpatient procedure is significantly shorter, the preparation time is also much shorter. Everything surrounding the procedure must be timed even more precisely and optimally coordinated. With the consistent separation of outpatient and inpatient processes from admission to discharge, the adjustment of operation planning and the subdivision of operation capacities into outpatient and inpatient, it has been possible to streamline processes at Zollikerberg Hospital while maintaining the same quality of treatment. Core teams were also formed in the outpatient area that are specifically responsible for these procedures.

At Zollikerberg Hospital, high-quality medical care requires strong structures in the background.

This is what Dr Daniela Gresch and Vera Sobieralski, who jointly manage the Operating Theatres and Intensive Care Unit Service Centre, stand for. With different perspectives, many years of experience and a shared understanding of leadership, they organise central services for the entire hospital. In this interview, they give an insight into their work, their collaboration and the role of the Operating Theatres and Intensive Care Unit Service Centre for quality, efficiency and humanity in everyday hospital life.
