Secure housing for outpatients<br />

February 2007, <strong>the</strong> two buildings that had been used as<br />

residential accommodation by <strong>the</strong> on-site communities were<br />

abandoned after a new building with 20 places had been<br />

completed on <strong>the</strong> site <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>LVR</strong>-<strong>Klinikum</strong> and a fur<strong>the</strong>r<br />

external residential community had been established.<br />

On-site community House 15<br />

The on-site community House 15 was constructed in<br />

2006 as a replacement for two older buildings. The House<br />

provides 16 group places (four residential groups with four<br />

members each) and four individual places (single-occupancy<br />

apartments). The House provides its inhabitants with a<br />

maximum <strong>of</strong> individuality and protection <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir private<br />

spheres, but also a certain degree <strong>of</strong> social encounters and<br />

community experience. It accommodates groups (providing<br />

20 places for four residential communities with four<br />

members each) and individuals (in four single-occupancy<br />

apartments). House 15 is equipped with a large enclosed<br />

garden and located at <strong>the</strong> periphery <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> hospital site near<br />

<strong>the</strong> staff dormitory and <strong>the</strong> social centre.<br />

External residential community Limburgstraße 25<br />

This building, constructed in <strong>the</strong> 1960s, comprises four<br />

spacious flats and has a large garden. It is located in central<br />

<strong>Düsseldorf</strong> near <strong>the</strong> city’s Ostpark. The infrastructure<br />

is highly suitable for <strong>the</strong> provision <strong>of</strong> community-based<br />

psychiatric care. The building housed <strong>the</strong> first external<br />

residential community <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Klinikum</strong>’s Division <strong>of</strong> Social<br />

Rehabilitation. It has two-and-a-half floors and a basement<br />
