We believe real healing is achieved when practitioners combine knowledge of the technology of medicine with a compassionate approach.
Gesundheit hospital 2020 Patch#
As a family doctor, Patch Adams likes to spend 3-4 hours on initial assessments. Each practitioner can spend all the time they need with a patient. We will integrate most of the healing arts. We will not accept third party reimbursement. In this way, we can deliver free healthcare at the Gesundheit Hospital. By creating a communal ecovillage for our permanent staff, who will live and work together, we create a place where everyone contributes and is paid equally, saving on the high costs associated with traditional hospitals. The current system of healthcare revolves around corporate structures, designed to prioritize profit over care. How does the Gesundheit hospital solve existing problems in healthcare? In the words of Patch Adams himself: “I envisioned a model of holistic medical care based on the belief that one cannot separate the health of the individual from the health of the family, the community, the society and the world.” The atmosphere we will create is happy, funny, loving, cooperative, creative and thoughtful.
The project includes a permaculture farm and Teaching Center, and delivers care through our key principle that a loving connection between doctor and patient is essential for healing.įriendship and mutual interdependence are key ingredients in ensuring that real connection is formed, to realize our therapeutic mission. The Gesundheit Hospital is the embodiment of our philosophy: a 40-bed rural community hospital building in rural West Virginia, dedicated to the free, community-centered approach that Patch Adams has pioneered since 1971.
