Contact Station B

Welcome to Ward B of the University Children's Hospital Basel (UKBB).

On the 3rd floor of the UKBB, we care for children and adolescents in the fields of surgery and orthopaedics. Our ward offers a modern environment for comprehensive medical care. Interdisciplinary collaboration is particularly important to us: nurses, doctors, therapists and other specialists work closely together to ensure that our young patients benefit as much as possible.

Visiting possibilities

Parents can be with their child around the clock. Additional visits are possible to a limited extent from 1.30 p.m. to 7 p.m. with a maximum of three people at the same time. In two-bed rooms, you may be asked to leave the room and wait in the parents' lounge during admissions, emergencies, medical rounds or handovers, for example.

Information

Only the parents or legal representatives receive information about patients.

Accommodation options

In addition to the patient room, there is also a parents' lounge (with fridge and microwave) and playroom on ward B. There is also a quiet room on the 2nd floor.
