Combined City Hospital
Combined city hospital is the main curative-prophylactic establishment in the city. The majority of city hospitals is many-aspected, i.e. they include departments of different specialities. There are possibilities for entire medical observation of the patients and complex treatment in such hospitals. The structure of the combined hospital:
1. HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT: staff and clerk office, medical statistics study, medical archives room, bookkeeper's room, library.
2. CURATIVE DIVISION: reception room (ward), medical department (unit): therapeutic, surgical, traumatologic, oncologic, urologic, ophthalmologic, otorhinolaryngologic, infectious, tuberculous, pediatric, gynecological, obstetrical and others, depending on the hospital capacity and profile.
AUXILIARY DIAGNOSTIC DEPARTMENTS (ROOMS): roentgenological, physiotherapeutic, curative medicine, etc.
LABORATORIES: clinical, biochemical, bacteriological, serological, etc.
PATHOANATOMICAL DEPARTMENT.
RESUSCITATION DEPARTMENT, INTENSIVE CARE (THERAPY) DEPARTMENT.
3. ADMINISTRATIVE DIVISION: kitchen, laundry, garage, barns, etc.
4. POLYCLINICS (polyclinical department).
Doctor-in-chief managers the staff and he is responsible for medical and economic activity of the hospital as a whole. Every department is headed by the Deputy Doctor. He guides curative work at the department, carries out everyday morning rounds, consults ordinators, discharges patients, checks up the curative indications.
There are nurses and junior medical staff at every department. The duties of a ward nurse include all kinds of care for a patient. She admits the patient, teaches him on regime, order of the hospital, takes part in doctors’ morning rounds, records and carries out all the doctor’s directions. She takes the temperature, gives medicines, makes injections, collects the material for laboratory analyses, follows sanitary-hygienic conditions of the wards and so on. Great importance is given to the role of a senior nurse of the department. All the paramedical personnel are subjected to her. In every large hospital there is a senior hospital nurse in the staff. She is subjected to the Chief Doctor and his Deputies (substitutes). She presides the Council of the Nurses of the hospital. She may be called the hostess of the hospital.
