The hospital announced this on Wednesday. The measure primarily affects planned births, the broadcast said. They want to concentrate primarily on supplying the surrounding communities of Braunau. However, emergencies “will of course continue to be fully taken care of,” it was emphasized.

We are in contact with the surrounding hospitals and resident doctors “in order to continue to ensure optimal patient care”. At the same time, recruiting measures are underway to attract new midwives – including from neighboring Bavaria.
