Rehabilitation Transport in Dischingen
Dischingen sits in the district of Heidenheim. The shortest link to a hospital runs via the St 2032, L 2033 and the DLG 7 and takes 23 minutes – it ends at St. Elisabeth in Dillingen. What sets this apart from an ordinary taxi ride is not the distance but the procedure: we collect you at your front door, walk in with you and wait until you are finished.
