In cooperation with the Institute of Occupational Medicine, Social Medicine and Environmental Medicine at Goethe University and Universitätsmedizin Frankfurt, the Hessian Competence Center for Healthy Schools is now being launched. It serves as a central point of contact for teachers and school staff, offering appropriate, supportive and scientifically grounded services.
The director of the Institute of Occupational, Social and Environmental Medicine at Goethe University, Prof. David Groneberg, explains: “The competence center offers targeted advisory services, quality-assured training courses, preventive measures and support for integrating health-promoting structures in schools. A particular focus is on mental health, which is closely linked to the demands of everyday school life.” According to the occupational physician, the competence center will also be available as an advisory body for teachers and school staff in individual occupational or environmental health matters, providing recognized expertise.
