Three new trauma outpatients in Saxony: quick help for those affected!

Since the beginning of the year there have been three new trauma outpatient clinics in Saxony, and the region now has a total of nine facilities for adults and four trauma outpatients especially for children and adolescents. These additional contact points are located in Arnsdorf (Bautzen district), Altscherbitz near Leipzig and in the clinic Am Waldschlößchen in Dresden. The [ZEIT] (https://www.zeit.de/news/2025-07/08/dreiher- traumaambulanzen-in-sachsen) reports that the operation of these outpatient locations is crucial for the support of people after experiencing violence.

Minister of Health Petra Köpping underlines the importance of quick help in acute crisis situations. The new trauma outpatient clinics not only offer enforcement advice and therapeutic care for those affected, but also support for relatives and survivors. This creates low -threshold access to psychological help, which is particularly important for victims of acts of violence, as the police Saxony emphasized.

• Arnsdorf (Bautzen district): Another important point of contact for traumatized people.
• Altscherbitz near Leipzig: centrally located and easily accessible.

The trauma outpatient clinic mental health at the University Hospital Dresden treats adults after experiences of violence and can be reached on 0351 41726750. For children and adolescents there is a special trauma outpatient clinic in the Dresden municipal clinic, which also offers corresponding help.
