Overview
An exclusive private clinic overlooking the Gulf of Naples with 100 years of history and surrounded by greenery and quiet, with a view of a bay renowned throughout the world for its beauty.
The Clinic was founded in 1919 by Swiss businessman Hans Ruesch, who owned a textile factory in Sarno, near Naples. Since its founding, the Clinic has been a first-rate healthcare facility where, in addition to an élite, often international patient population, factory employees and their families could be treated by leading Italian and international doctors.
During the same time period, Duchess Elena D’Aosta, a member of the Orléans Royal family of France, established the “Blue Cross,” the first nursing training school, in the neighbouring Villa Jandolo. The Blue Cross and the Clinica Ruesch began an effective and dose-based collaboration at that point. Traditional values are confirmed and updated today – the present and the future. Today’s patients are provided with first-rate medical expertise, high standards of service, and qualified nursing assistance.
The Facility, which was recently renovated, covers an area of 6000 square meters. It is equipped with cutting-edge technologies in both the surgical and diagnostic fields, and it is constantly adding new specializations to broaden its activities. Hotel-level comfort and attention to detail are factors that contribute to the best possible patient experience. It features 80 beds, 3 modern operating rooms for major surgery, 2 for day surgery, a panoramic patient-oriented delivery room, 2 intensive care beds (plus 1 for isolation). It is a center of excellence for birthing, infertility treatment and medically assisted procreation.
The Clinica Ruesch makes available to its patients the currently most advanced system in the field of Robotic Surgery: the Robot Da Vinci Xi System. The outpatient clinic, with more than 80 private professionals, is located in a beautiful historical villa built at the beginning of the 20th century.
Maternity Unit and Neonatology
Facing the Gulf of Naples, in front of Vesuvius, the Clinica Ruesch offers a very modern patient-oriented delivery room, with the aim of making childbirth a physiological event as much as possible and experiencing the birth in conditions of maximum safety, absolute tranquility and naturalness. The team consists of the main gynecologist, supported by the neonatologist, obstetrician, supervisor and anesthetist.
Among the delivery room equipment:
- Water birth tub: Extremely ergonomic, it is pleasant and welcoming, allowing the new mother to assume a posture of complete muscle relaxation. Many women choose water births and report positive effects on their birth experience. Some women have found that giving birth in water is soothing, reducing stress and even calming their newborn baby. Because warm water in the birthing tub can help with relaxation, it may also cause the release of more endorphins and improve blood flow to the uterine muscles, which can help the new mother deal with labor pains naturally.
- Birthing Bed AVE: Designed to better satisfy the needs of the woman in labor by offering excellent opportunities for relaxation, freedom of movement and assuming an upright posture.
Since 1919, more than 75.000 babies have been born in Clinica Ruesch. In line with the international guidelines laid down by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (ACOG), the Clinica Ruesch delivery room and nursery, designed according to the most up-to-date organizational concepts, allow to assist and aid childbirth in an ultramodern patient-orientated delivery room, furnished with state of the art equipment.
In accordance with WHO guidelines for babies born naturally, the Clinic implements the “Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding” program, which includes the rooming-in practice. The specialized staff will guide the mother and father through the first moments of welcoming the new arrival and the first steps in caring for the new arrival.
Due to modern equipment for the assistance and stabilization of the critical new-born baby, as well as the support and experience of our medical, obstetric, and nursery staff, Ruesch specialists are able to meet the neonatal and perinatal exigencies.
