Hospital

The state has established the wide network of the medical institutions. One of them is the regional hospital. It is multistory building with all modern conveniences. There are some departments in this hospital. One can see surgical, cardiological, pulmonological, gastroenterological and other departments.

There are many light and cozy wards in each department. In every ward one can see some beds, bed-side tables and chairs. Each department houses approximately 50 patients.

The work at the hospital begins early. First of all the nurses take the patients’ temperature and fulfill the doctor’s prescriptions. If it is necessary, they give intramuscular and intravenous injections, cup the patients, apply mustard plasters, make compresses, and give the prescribed medicines.

Every day the doctors make the morning round. They examine the patients, listen to the heart and lungs, palpate the abdominal parts, feel the pulse, and measure blood pressure. They make the diagnosis and prescribe proper treatment to every patient. I should like to note that our physicians and nurses pay much attention to the treatment of the patients.

A surgical department houses 65 staffed beds. There are large and small wards and a large, light operating theatre here.

In this department there are patients with surgical diseases, such as: appendicitis, hernia, gastric and duodenal ulcers, cholecystitis and others.

The most common operations are appendectomy, vagotomy, stomach resection, cholecystectomy and operations on the thorax and thoracic organs. The operations are performed under general or local anaesthesia. The anaesthetist gives the patient anaesthesia and when the patient falls asleep the surgeon begins to perform the operation. The assistant and surgical nurses help the surgeon during the operation. They give the necessary surgical instruments and control the patient’s condition.

After the operation special attention is paid to the postoperative condition of the patient. The surgeon prescribes a proper treatment and definite diet. Every day the surgeon makes the morning round, and examines the patients. The nurse takes the patient’s temperature, dresses the wounds, gives injections, and fulfills the doctor’s prescriptions.

The work in the surgical department is rather difficult but very important.

In the cardiological department one can see patients with heart diseases, such as: myocarditis, pericarditis, cardiosclerosis and others. The patients have heart troubles, breathlessness, weakness and other symptoms. The doctors and nurses pay much attention to these patients.

In the pulmonological department there are patients with lung diseases and disorders of the respiratory tract. They suffer from pneumonia, bronchitis, asthma and others. The patients complain of a bad cough, high temperature, and headache.

In the gastroenterological department you can find the patients with abdominal diseases. They have gastritis, colitis, ulcer and others. The patients feel pain in the stomach, weakness, and sometimes they have nausea and vomiting. The doctors use different methods of treatment of these patients and pay much attention to them.
