Emergency on Lake Wörthersee
Carinthia vacationer meets his lifesaver
A young Carinthian doctor became a lifesaver for a Styrian man (80) at the "Wörthersee autofrei" cycling event in 2023! Now it came to an emotional meeting.
Gunter Nitsche and his family will probably never forget April 30, 2023. The lawyer from Graz had come to Carinthia with his wife to enjoy a car-free cycle tour around Lake Wörthersee. Towards the end of the ride, he suddenly felt heart pains and fell over unconscious.
Schuzengel sent a doctor
However, he was lucky in misfortune, because his guardian angel was also cycling with him and made sure that a young Carinthian doctor (off duty) was in the right place at the right time. She immediately recognized what was happening and began resuscitation. Nitsche was flown to the hospital, where he even had to undergo emergency heart surgery. Hildegard Jasser-Nitsche, the Graz native's daughter and a doctor herself, managed to track down the lifesaver via the "Krone" newspaper, which led to an emotional reunion.
"We invited Dr. Elisabeth Dunst to a breakfast together in Velden. Our whole family was there. My father is in good health again and celebrated his 80th birthday in July. We are all so grateful!" says Jasser-Nitsche.
Good emergency medical training
Doctor Elisabeth Dunst is currently on maternity leave as she is expecting her second child. Otherwise, the doctor works at Klagenfurt Hospital. She owes her good training in emergency medicine to the stimulation training at the Medical University of Graz. She also completed numerous resuscitation courses there.
