Some hospitals in the regional center will again be redesigned as hospitals for patients with coronavirus. Thanks to the strengthening of the reserve of bed capacity, it will be possible to hospitalize patients near their place of residence.
Deputy head of the regional health committee Nikolai Alimov at a briefing of the regional operational headquarters said which medical institutions will soon return to the status of “coronavirus” hospitals, Volgogradskaya Pravda.ru reports.
– This is the regional hospital No. 3, which is located on Tsiolkovsky street, the city hospital in the center on Sovetskaya, as well as two buildings for covid patients deployed on the basis of a psychiatric hospital located on Heroes Shipki street. One building will be given for hospitalization of patients with COVID-19 and mental disorders, and the second – only for citizens with confirmed coronavirus. In addition, the building of the hospital No. 7 in the Sovetsky district and the drug dispensary on Degtyarev street will again be redesigned, ”Alimov said.
