A clear algorithm has been developed for the admission of patients with the COVID-19 coronavirus, if such there is such a need in Mariupol. In the city hospital No. 4, a hospital base has been organized where infected children will be accommodated. Today Mayor Vadym Boichenko checked the readiness of the institution to receive patients.
The Mayor got acquainted with the infectious ward, which now has 41 beds. Six of them are resuscitative. Each is provided with a ventilator and a monitor for monitoring the patient's condition.
The director of the hospital, Vladimir Zhigil, also demonstrated to Vadym Boichenko the installation of external and internal oxygen pipelines. The system was installed in record time - for just 10 days. These measures were funded by Metinvest Group. Such points will be equipped in three medical institutions of the city. For these purposes, the company allocated almost UAH 10 million.
