Taking care of every patient. How to improve the quality of medical care in Belarus

Taking care of every patient. Attention – the provision of quality medical care not only in cities, but also in small villages. In Oboli in the north of the country, patients are treated in a renovated outpatient clinic. And in Novoelna, Grodno region - a large repair in the clinic.

Updates in Vitebsk region

Nina Luzgina – at the first reception in a new outpatient clinic in the village of Obol near Shumilino. The thyroid gland is concerned - constant monitoring and monitoring is important. I used to go to the district for help. Everything near the house is fast and comfortable.

Comfortable outpatient clinic in the kindergarten building. Modern repairs, furniture and medical equipment. There are 11 people in the new workplace. There are several offices: procedural, dental, physiotherapy, general practitioner. For patients requiring specialized treatment, a day hospital.

Yana Varkhapovich, general practitioner of the Obolsk outpatient clinic: Our outpatient clinic opened just recently, but a fairly large flow of people is coming to us. In the morning we have a reception, in the afternoon a call. We welcome more than 20 people a day. We pay special attention to pregnant women, mothers with children, people with chronic diseases, as well as the elderly. It is also possible to undergo a full medical examination at the outpatient clinic.”.

Updated ambulance post. Medical duty around the clock. The team will reach the patient within minutes. This is especially important for residents of remote villages.

Natalia Pashkevich, a nurse of the Obol exit brigade: Our ambulance is fully equipped. For example, we have an infusion machine, a defibrillator, a ventilator in the car, which is very helpful in the work and in providing first aid to people.”.

What is new in the Grodno region

And on the other end of the country in the urban village of Novoelnya waiting for the opening of the clinic. Now there is a large-scale reconstruction. The old building was worn out for half a century, even the foundation had to be changed. Added and extension – expanded the area, inside completely changed the layout. Opening in winter, so builders are in a hurry. Many works have to be carried out in parallel - while some are occupied by the building, others by improvement. Every day there are about 50 people in the facility, soon there will be even more.

Block A has already been partially completed. By the end of November, the roof will be closed. Therefore, conduct all communication within. Well, from December in the block And this little finishing work will begin. In block B, the partially rough finishing works are already ready.”.

And the clinic in Novoeln is the necessary object. Soon, with full comfort, it will be able to serve 4 thousand people – residents of the village and 32 nearest villages. Here will be placed the offices of general practitioners, physiotherapy, fluorographic, day stay. There will also be a dentist with new equipment.

Viktor Yatskevich, Chief Physician of the Dyatlovsk Central District Hospital: This clinic was previously a corridor type, and it was quite difficult to delineate the flow of patients. And given the previous experience of the pandemic, now all this has been taken into account during reconstruction. In addition to the main entrance to the clinic, we will also have a separate box, which will be used to receive temperature patients, and if necessary, in case of which, it can be immediately converted into so-called “red zones” for the reception of infectious patients.

All over the country

Outpatient clinics, FAPs, clinics and hospitals are important discoveries in medicine throughout the country. Proper diagnosis and timely treatment, high-tech operations and the purchase of equipment are an invaluable contribution of the state to the health of the nation.
