Emergency – Medical Care and Preservation of Evidence

The University Women’s Hospital in Tübingen provides acute medical care, gynecological diagnostics, and the preservation of evidence (ideally within 72 hours) around the clock through its emergency outpatient clinic.

Secured samples for evidence preservation are stored at the University Women’s Hospital for at least twelve months if no police report has yet been filed, so that a police report can still be filed at a later date.
