In addition to medical treatment and care, the UKBB also offers a wide range of social services if required. These include psychological support, social counselling and help with organising everyday life during and after the hospital stay.
The interaction between the medical departments and social services is of great importance for the recovery process. It helps patients to feel that they are in good hands not only physically, but also emotionally and socially. This holistic care supports the rapid return of children and adolescents to their familiar environment and helps them to reintegrate into their everyday lives.
