The hospital network expansion: solutions of the Operational Headquarters

Regular meeting of the Operational Headquarters under the President for prevention of the spread of coronavirus took place. Vadim Krasnoselsky noted an increase in the disease incidence. If in the previous weeks the average daily rate was kept within 80, now in Pridnestrovie on average 90-95 new carriers of COVID-19 are detected per day. The largest number of cases is in the capital. Despite the fact that in addition to the main coronavirus hospital on the basis of the republican clinical hospital its branch was recently deployed for asymptomatic patients at the Spartak health camp, there is a need for additional expansion of the bed capacity. The President instructed to prepare the Dnestrovskie Zori health complex for receiving infected patients by Wednesday. Carriers of the virus with a mild course of the disease will be delivered there from Tiraspol and if necessary from Bendery. The building of the Solnechny dispensary in Dnestrovsk is being prepared to help the Slobodzeya hospital. So far, there is no urgent need for it, but the institution should be in full readiness in case the general Slobodzeya COVID center is filled, the President pointed out. It is necessary to expand the hospital network now in the north of the republic. The Rybnitsa hospital has seven free beds. Various options for the location of its branch were considered. The most optimal at the moment is the MMZ dispensary, according to the members of the Operations Headquarters. It will be possible to organize the treatment of 120 patients in the premises of this institution. The President emphasized that it is necessary not only to prepare hospital wards, but also to train personnel. Relevant instructions have been given.
