Starting November 5, Ukmergė Hospital will treat coronavirus patients. The so-called 28-bed covidium compartment is located in the Department of Internal Medicine. His patients and others who will need hospital treatment for internal illnesses will be referred to Širvintos and Molėtai hospitals.
As you know, a similar department was operating at Ukmergė Hospital during the quarantine in the spring. It then housed 10-12 COVID-19 infected patients, most of whom required nursing care. Now, as the head of the medical institution said to the “Homeland”. Dr. Rimvydas Civilka, serious patients are also welcome. They will be transported from the Hospital de Infecciones de Clínicas Santara.
The Department of Anesthesiology-Resuscitation has also become vacant for coronavirus patients. Resuscitation services will be provided to other “clean” patients in the new operating room.
According to R. Civilka, this extraordinary situation is a great challenge for the hospital, but Ukmergė doctors already have experience.
The head of the medical institution did not deny that the training of the team of the staff of the new department will reduce the forces of the hospital, so it may be necessary to suspend planned operations. However, emergency care will be provided as before, the Counseling Polyclinic and other hospital rooms will be open.
“Mr.. §.” Inform.
We will tell you more about the changes at Ukmergė Hospital in the Saturday 7th November edition of the newspaper.
