Holiday dialysis in Osterholz and the Teufelsmoor farmland

Moorland, art and quiet horizons – plan your dialysis during a stay between the Hamme, Worpswede and Osterholz-Scharmbeck.

Experience the Teufelsmoor farmland with holiday dialysis

North of Bremen lies a landscape many only notice on a second look: wide stretches of moor and meadow, the Hamme, Wümme and Wörpe rivers, and the artists' village of Worpswede among them. The district town of Osterholz-Scharmbeck combines both – short distances in town and direct access to the Hamme lowlands. Your dialysis takes place at Nephrologicum Osterholz while you explore the region at your own pace.
