Dispute over general practitioners in Drewitz: Care Gaspass or political failure?

Department of A family doctor in Drewitz

affects the community: The Drewitz citizens feel increasingly worried when it comes to access to general practitioners. Despite the official information from the city administration, which certifies sufficient medical care of over 110 percent, many residents of long waiting times and overloaded practices report.

Need for action and solution ideas

Political reactions: In view of these symptoms, the city council group "The other" asked the town hall for a necessary need for action. A spokesman for the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians Brandenburg (KVBB), Christian Wehry, emphasizes that acute care is generally ensured and that no further practices would be needed because the need is covered. This raises questions about the actual situation of care.

Sanitary facilities for the Nowawiese sports field

A supply topic: Another example of improvements in the urban infrastructure is the city's decision to build toilet containers on the Nowawiese sports field. So far, athletes have had a long way from almost a kilometer to the next toilets in the Babelsberg lido. This was made possible by negotiations with the pool companies, who have now signed a contract with the city. This measure shows how important it is to take into account the needs of citizens in the sports area.

garrison church and the new plenary hall

Public discussion: The considerations for the new plenary hall at the garrison church also ensure talk. Potsdam Mayor Mike Schubert (SPD) wants to create a new representative hall with the "House of Democracy". So far, however, there are discussions about whether this room is really needed, especially since a multifunctional room is being built in the town hall, which could also be used as a plenary hall. Upcoming feasibility studies will soon bring light into the dark.

meaning of care for the citizens

A look into the future: The challenges in medical care and general infrastructure are of great importance for the quality of life of the Drewitzer and the entire Potsdam population. An open dialogue between the citizens, city administration and doctors is essential to better understand and operate the needs of the community. The positive changes, such as the sanitary facilities on the sports field or the discussions about the plenary hall, are steps in the right direction, but must be supplemented by comprehensive solutions in health care.
