Neues Therapiezentrum Chronischer Schmerz im Rabenhof
摘要
Chronic pain is a significant health and socioeconomic problem. Vienna is the first federal state to implement the new tiered care concept of the Austrian Health Structure Plan to improve pain therapy. The new Chronic Pain Therapy Centre (TCS) in Rabenhof sees itself as a specialised level 2 care facility offering multiprofessional, multimodal and evidence-based care for patients with moderate to severe chronic pain conditions. The aim is to use a biopsychosocial concept to reduce pain, counteract chronicity processes, restore functionality, and strengthen self-determination. The centre is operated by the Herz-Jesu Hospital and is a target control project financed by the City of Vienna and social insurance institutions.
