<p> In June, the onco-hematology unit of Kazan City Clinical Hospital No.16, located in the second block of the medical institution, will admit its first patients after the renovation. Single and double wards with an individual bathroom and a separate ventilation system are provided for them. Ilsur Metshin, the Mayor of Kazan, got acquainted with the progress of renovation. </p> <p> The head of the city noted that today the renovation is underway in three municipal clinics – the Hospital for War Veterans, City Hospitals No.2 and No.16. “We are carrying out a comprehensive renovation, and in addition to the overhaul, the necessary medical equipment and furniture will be purchased for these hospitals”, - the Mayor said. </p> <p> Hospital No.16 is a multipurpose medical institution, which comprises a hospital, a polyclinic, a women's consultation and a maternity hospital for 110 people. More than 56 thousand people are registered at the hospital. Today 904 employees work here. </p> <p> The hospital on Gagarin Street was built in 1979. The large-scale reconstruction of the medical facility began 5 years ago. In 2017, the polyclinic and antenatal clinic were overhauled, which comprises prenatal diagnostics and the center for thrombodynamics for pregnant women. </p> <p> Two years later, in 2019, the hospital underwent reconstruction and overhaul of a food unit, in which the city outpatient center for otorhinolaryngology and pulmonology was subsequently opened. </p> <p> This year, work is being carried out in the second building of the hospital. The Mayor of Kazan informed that the work is being carried out in stages, since this is a large facility. “We will create comfortable conditions for doctors and patients, we will purchase new medical equipment, the installation of which was impossible in the previous conditions”, - the head of the city said. </p> <p> In the second building of the hospital, there is the only outpatient center of onco-hematology in the city. Ilsur Metshin inspected the renovated premises. </p> <p> Vladimir Belyakov, chief physician of the hospital, told Ilsur Metshin that at the first stage of the reconstruction of the second building, the repair of the roof with an area of more than 900 sq.m was completed. “Workers have replaced all utilities, now work is being completed in the CT-scan room, which will open in the center of onco-hematology thanks to the support of Tatarstan President”, - Vladimir Belyakov said. </p> <p> All wards will be separated, so patients will not be in contact with each other. In addition, an individual ventilation system is provided in the onco-hematology unit after the renovation in each ward. “The design of the unit is really unique, - added Vladimir Zhavoronkov, Deputy Minister of Health of Tatarstan – Patients with low immune function will be accommodated here, and any bacterial infection can lead to irreparable consequences. Therefore, this unit provides single and double wards with an individual bathroom and a separate ventilation system”. </p> <p> The Mayor of Kazan asked about the supply of imported equipment. Vladimir Belyakov assured the Mayor that all medical equipment would be delivered immediately after the completion of interior works. </p> <p> At the end of his visit, the Mayor of Kazan inspected the polyclinic building, which is adjacent to the hospital. The head of the city looked around a new MRT device. “Thanks to your support, Ilsur Raisovich, an MRT office will finally start working in the polyclinic, which will be able to help thousands of Kazan residents”, - Vladimir Belyakov said. </p>
