Rapid assistance – Groundbreaking for the Stroke Unit in Graz

The groundbreaking ceremony took place last Friday. Thomas Lorenz ZT GmbH is responsible for project management for the two-storey extension and the adaptation of existing areas within the clinic. A functional, light-filled extension is planned in the immediate vicinity of the intensive care unit. The existing number of 6 acute beds will be doubled to 12, and new treatment rooms for various therapies—from physiotherapy and occupational therapy through to speech therapy—will be created. All rooms will be designed to a state-of-the-art standard, and high-quality lighting will create a bright, welcoming atmosphere. The aim is for patients to feel well cared for and for employees to feel comfortable in their workplace. With planned completion in June 2024, the “Stroke Unit” in Graz, with around 1,300 m² of additional space, will be the largest facility of its kind in Austria.
