Overview of all
   pilot hospitals
• Kaiser Franz-Josefs-Spital • Vienna, Austria

     KFJ Vienna – a patient-oriented hospital

The hospital is located in a district with a migrant population of about 25,000. Many of our patients are originally from Turkey or countries that were previously part of Yugoslavia. Our medical and nursing staff is multicultural as well. Efforts to decrease problems caused by language and intercultural differences have been made in the past – e.g., by employing a Turkish community interpreter. Several departments are already closely cooperating with FEM, a Women's Health Centre that focusses on the needs of women migrants. KFJ wants to take on a leading role in developing strategies and programmes to improve services covering the special needs of migrant patients.
