Six young people start voluntary social year in the Korneuburg State Clinic

Six young people have made the decision to complete a voluntary social year (FSJ) in the State Clinic Korneuburg-Stockerau, starting in autumn 2024. This commitment offers young adults the valuable opportunity to sniff into various areas of health and social work. The State Clinic is pleased to welcome the new participants in their ranks.

At the Korneuburg location, the participants are used in the departments of orthopedics and traumatology, surgery and the interdisciplinary weekly clinic. At the same time, young people in Stockerau are specifically assigned to internal medicine A, B and D. Such voluntary services are not only an advantage for the clinic, but also a significant experience for young people who gain practical insights into everyday work in the healthcare system.

clear advantages for young people

A voluntary social year is a crucial step in their professional career for many young people. You are given the opportunity to get to know the different facets of patient care and to develop valuable skills in communication and in dealing with people. Many participants also use the time to find out whether a healthcare profession is suitable for them.

The station manager Claudia Gruber and her team, including the interim nurse director Silva Hickelsberger, emphasize how important such programs are. These initiatives promote understanding of the daily challenges in the medical sector and can help with professional orientation. The young people not only get an insight into the work processes, but also the opportunity to actively interact with patients and to expand their skills in the team.

The FSJ represents a bridge between theory and practice and helps the participants to orientate themselves professionally and to plan future careers. As part of the program, they are not only required professionally, but also promoted personally. It is a valuable time that strengthens both the personal and professional development of the participants.

In the State Clinic, those responsible hope not only to offer a formative experience to the young people through this initiative, but also to further develop the institution itself. The exchange with new generations brings fresh ideas and perspectives to everyday clinical practice.
