Top clinics in MV: Rostock leads the care ranking!

On December 8, 2025, the clinics in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania will be in the spotlight. The state treats an impressive 390,680 patients every year and can rely on the support of 7,715 nurses. This year, Rostock University Medical Center graces the ranking as the best hospital and not only attracts the attention of patients, but also impresses with its high numbers and quality of care.

The Rostock University Medical Center has made a name for itself with a caseload of 38,413 and has 976 nursing staff. With a nursing staff ratio of 38.79, the clinic shows that the well-being of the patients comes first. Interestingly, it has the second highest number of cases in the entire state, which underlines the importance of this facility in the region. The data all come from the Federal Hospital Atlas, an important information tool for inpatient hospital care in Germany.

Top clinics at a glance

But the Rostock University Medical Center is not alone in the competition for the highest number of cases. Here are the five clinics that treat the most patients in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania:

Place clinic address Number of cases Nursing staff ratio Nursing staff

2. Rostock University Medical Center – main location Schillingallee 35, 18057 Rostock 38,413 38.79 976
3. Greifswald University Medical Center – corporation under public law Ferdinand-Sauerbruch-Straße 2, 17489 Greifswald 35,989 56.84 813
4. Dietrich Bonhoeffer Clinic Neubrandenburg location Salvador-Allende-Straße 30, 17036 Neubrandenburg 32,332 47.57 600
5. Helios Hanseklinikum Stralsund – Sund main location somatics Große Parower Straße 47-53, 18435 Stralsund 24,915 46.25 517

It turns out that the nursing staff ratio has a decisive influence on the quality of care. For example, the Greifswald University Medical Center has the highest value with 56.84, followed by the Helios Kliniken Schwerin with 48.71. This is likely to be an important criterion for many people when choosing a hospital.

Importance of the Federal Hospital Atlas

The Federal Hospital Atlas is regularly updated and offers comprehensive information about inpatient care. Although it in no way replaces a personal visit to the doctor, it does offer valuable guidance. In addition to the number of cases, the number of beds and the number of nursing staff are also included in the data recorded. What is particularly noteworthy is that psychiatric hospitals will not be shown in the current version for the next few years, which shows a gap in the data collection.

The data from the atlas is of interest not only to patients, but also to the healthcare system itself. IQTIG plays a central role here by taking responsibility for the data quality and the implementation of the Federal Hospital Atlas and raising important questions about the quality of care.

The situation in the clinics remains exciting and it remains to be hoped that the standards will continue to develop positively. Ultimately, all patients want to receive good care, and the clinics are taking an important step in the right direction through their efforts.
