Moving the Magadan trauma center saved patients from a long wait

Mikhail Lyaluk - 78, stumbled, fell at home, now does not raise his hand and can not step on his leg. The family suggests fractures, the grandfather after a stroke does not talk, this complicates the diagnosis. X-ray, if necessary, computed tomography will be done immediately after the initial examination. Now all the necessary equipment for traumatology is in one building. “Comfortable, understandable logistics, where they get, the primary patient came, he goes to the right, a group of offices, the primary reception room and dressing room, and here along the corridor there are two blocks – a second reception,” explained Olga Kostina, chief doctor of the City Polyclinic. The wide rooms of the diagnostic center of the Magadan Regional Hospital are suitable for patients with injuries, many people move on crutches, the building is convenient for people with limited mobility in the regional center. This was the purpose of moving out of the former hospital building inconvenient for patients. “We removed another device from the old emergency room and we plan to make a second window and put a second machine for the take, this one broke, this one broke, it works,” said Alexander Vitko, Minister of Health and Demographic Policy of the Magadan region. Now they are working to reduce the waiting time in the queue, they plan to ensure that the patient immediately receives medical care. To make it even more comfortable, the principle of “empty emergency room” was introduced here, thanks to effective routing, people do not crowd in the corridors, but immediately go to doctors. The proximity of the reception department of the Magadan Regional Hospital reduces the time for receiving specialized care, the patient can be immediately assigned to the department if necessary. “I asked myself whether the solution was correct, successful, people said, thank God, that this decision was found, it seemed to lie on the surface, but it was necessary to take, see, and most importantly, have the desire and willpower to do it, the Ministry of Health – well done what they did,” said Sergey Nosov, Governor of the Magadan region. Separate reception hours were allocated for patients with orthopedic problems, previously they had to wait in a common queue.
