Relatives

Suddenly everything changes – your relative's life is turned upside-down by an accident or illness.

And your life is also affected. You now face the challenge of dealing with the event and its impact on your own life and on the life you share with your relative.

As employees of the Swiss Paraplegic Centre, we offer you support and help you to see different perspectives. Personal discussions are invaluable – for you and for us. While your relative is an inpatient with us, all our offers are free of charge.

Medical information for relatives

Please note that in accordance with adult protection law, we may only provide information to relatives if authorised to do so by patients with sufficient mental capacity to make medical decisions. For patients lacking the required mental capacity, information will be conveyed to the patient’s authorised representative, as well as to the patient’s relatives if authorised by the latter.
