Department of Psychiatry

The Psychiatric Clinic of the Nitra University Hospital provides comprehensive healthcare to patients with a full spectrum of mental disorders (psychotic disorders, organic mental disorders, depression, addictions, eating disorders, as well as patients with neurotic and psychosomatic difficulties and pediatric patients).

The average length of stay for patients in our department is 19 days.

At the clinic, we frequently treat patients with more severe mental illnesses, providing care during the acute treatment phase as well as follow-up care through a range of resocialization and rehabilitation activities such as occupational therapy, art therapy, music therapy, and a variety of group psychotherapeutic activities focused on treating all types of mental disorders.

The Psychiatric Clinic also provides continuous consultation services for patients of all other clinics and departments within the University Hospital.

The clinic participates in the education of students at Constantine the Philosopher University (UKF) in the field of Nursing in both full-time and part-time forms, and also provides individual internships for psychology students.
