After the cancelation of the medical licence of jewish physicians in July 1938 they have been admitted about 709 so called carers of the sick. In the end of 1938 there remained only 285 carers of the sick. Article 2 of the responsible order permitted a revocable license to the carers of the sick. If Jewish doctors received such an approval, they might treat only members of their own family as well as Jewish patients. If they did not received it, the medical practice was forbidden for Jewish doctors. With this order the elimination of the Jewish doctors was deemed to be finished. The investigation promises for the first time knowledge about the criteria a carer of the sick has been chosen, how the legal basis was for them, and what the daily life of a carer of the sick was or the medical care of Jewish patients between 1938 and 1945 - in Berlin and Hamburg.
