Hungarian healthcare is prepared to perform the tasks associated with the increasing number of patients. As the second wave of the coronavirus epidemic intensifies, more and more Covid patients are in need of hospitalization as a result of weeks’ higher daily morbidity rates. Therefore, according to a well-tested recipe in the spring, we also gradually opened and opened care facilities in the second wave, taking into account the basic organizational principle of using individual hospitals to the limit of capacities, said the Ministry of Human Resources.
Mainly, the three hospitals in Budapest with extensive experience and expertise, the South Pest Centrum Hospital, the Korányi National Institute of Pulmonology and the Szent János Hospital, receive patients with moderate to severe coronavirus.
“While we concentrate covidium patients in designated hospitals, the increased epidemiological responsibilities require additional specialists to be directed to those institutions. In keeping with the dynamics of the epidemic, we are reassigning doctors and nurses from hospitals that are not currently participating. in infection control, “he writes. Emmi. This process requires the adaptation of the institutions that receive patients with covidium and also of the hospitals that take over tasks or hire specialists to treat patients with severe coronavirus.
A good example of inter-hospital collaboration is that the National Institute of Oncology took over chest surgery from Korányi Hospital and provided intensive care professionals to treat patients with severe coronavirus.
According to a well-tested recipe in the spring, yesterday the epidemiological authority instructed doctors and nurses from various hospitals to designated primary institutions for the treatment of the growing number of critically ill patients. Of course, this also requires adaptation of the hospitals that provide the additional professionals, but the point of system-level management is that these hospitals can still perform their basic functions, Emmi writes.
In this regard, health expert Kunezt Zsmbor pointed out that there are very few doctors and hospitals that receive care for coronavirus patients. The National Institute of Hematology and Infectious Diseases at South Pest Central Hospital described that it was unable to meet the human resource needs of the war plan to expand its service with 10 additional intensive care beds and 30 additional beds in addition to its current system, as that the Government Office sent a resident, Kunez wrote.
Emmi wrote that in the first wave of the epidemic, healthcare workers did their best to do whatever they could to get the best care for all of their patients. It is also thanks to them that Hungary had unique success in Europe in dealing with the coronavirus epidemic in the spring. In the second wave, too, the burden will fall on those who work next to the patients’ beds, and we ask those responsible for the institutions to work together to help them in this work, the statement concludes.
