Offenburg, 10 June 2024: MEDICLIN Aktiengesellschaft (MEDICLIN) held its Annual General Meeting on Thursday, 6th of June. This was held as a virtual Annual General Meeting without the physical presence of shareholders or their authorised representatives (with the exception of the company's proxies) in Bad Neustadt an der Saale.
CEO Dr Joachim Ramming expressed his satisfaction with the past financial year 2023. The post-acute segment in particular, which reflects the core competence of rehabilitation, recorded a successful development. This development is to be built on further this year.
The Supervisory Board was also satisfied with the 2023 financial year. With the newly acquired Supervisory Board members PD Dr Sara Sheikhzadeh, Mr Hafid Rifi and Mr Joachim Gemmel, the Board has been strengthened by experienced members. Dr Jan Liersch, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of MEDICLIN, comments: "We are looking forward to working with our new Supervisory Board members. They bring valuable experience and are a clear asset to the Supervisory Board of MEDICLIN AG".
The healthcare industry is facing major challenges
The situation for healthcare professionals remains tense. The demand for skilled labour will continue to grow faster than the supply. This shortage of skilled labour will make it more difficult to provide patients with the best possible care. Added to this is the pending hospital reform. It primarily affects the acute sector, but is expected to have an impact on all areas of the healthcare system, including rehabilitation. Dr Joachim Ramming, CEO of MEDICLIN, commented on the potential effects: "Hospitals will have to adapt their portfolios. Beds in the stationary sector will be reduced throughout Germany and ambulatory care will continue to increase."
