The State of Vorarlberg on the Internet

As an institution of the public health service the department for medical affairs is obliged to serve the well-being of the population of Vorarlberg. The public health doctors working in our department and in the district authorities are not involved in therapy, but in the fields of hygiene, preventive healthcare, advice and assessment.
