Gesundheitsdepartement des Kantons St.Gallen

The Gesundheitsdepartement des Kantons St. Gallen is a governmental body based at Oberer Graben 32 in St. Gallen. As a department of the cantonal administration, it is part of the public authorities and is not a medical practice but an official point of contact within the healthcare system.

A cantonal health department carries out tasks relating to the organisation and oversight of the healthcare system. It is therefore the responsible administrative office for matters that go beyond individual medical treatment and concern the public, cantonal framework.

For residents of the Canton of St. Gallen, the department is the official address for administrative questions in the field of health. Information and responsibilities are accessible via the cantonal website sg.ch.
