New lifesaver center: Großthiemig lies the cornerstone for rescue station!

Großthiemig, Deutschland - Yesterday the foundation for a new rescue station was laid in Großthiemig. The district of Elbe-Elster plans to significantly strengthen emergency medical care in Schradenland with this new building. The ceremony took place on June 24, 2025 and is another step in the continuous improvement of the emergency services in the region. This makes the new guard the eleventh new building that has been created since 2010 to meet the requirements for modern emergency care. As reported Niederlausitz-Aktuell, the preparation began on 17 March March 2025.

The new rescue station is built near the previous location in Hauptstraße 31, which no longer corresponds to today's standards. The investment costs amount to around 1.6 million euros. At the end of its construction period, in September 2026, the guard will be occupied around the clock. In the team, a paramedic or emergency paramedic, a paramedic and a trainee will work as an emergency paramedic in shift operation.

planned equipment and construction work

The new guard is equipped with everything that is required for an effective emergency service. Among other things, a garage parking space for an ambulance, spacious storage areas, modern lounge and relaxation rooms as well as a separate disinfection area are planned. An office for administrative activities and a lock for material and medication supply are also part of the infrastructure that should support the employees.

The commissioned companies that come from the region include PS Bau Peter Sähring GmbH for civil engineering and shell construction and Fischer Flachdach GmbH for the roof work. Hauffe Industrietore GmbH takes care of the metal construction, while the Kollessen Kunststoff- und Metallbau GmbH participates on the window, door and carpentry work. The construction work also offers the domestic economy a good chance of introducing its specialist knowledge and further strengthening the region. As ee television, the new guard will contribute significantly to the safety of the population in Großthiemig and the neighboring locations in the Oberspreewald-Lausitz district.

Current developments in the emergency services

If you look at the development of the rescue guards in the district, it is striking that regular renovations and new buildings are urgently necessary. According to Wochenkurier there are currently several projects in the pipeline. For example, the rescue station in Wernchau is also replaced, since the current conditions there neither meet occupational safety nor the hygiene standards. The new building in Wernchau will also be occupied around the clock and should optimize the aid periods in the emergency services.

summarized, the new rescue station in Großthiemig offers the opportunity to sustainably improve the basic medical care and quick help in emergencies. With the latest equipment and a motivated team, this location will certainly have a positive impact on the emergency services landscape in the region.
