The construction of a new surgical building is of important strategic, social and medical importance - it will solve the issue of limiting the treatment areas in the institution and will allow, in wartime conditions, to ensure the continuity of urgent and planned surgical care, even in emergency situations (military threat, man-made disasters, radiation hazard, etc.). Project objectives: - Increase access to high-quality highly specialized medical care for children in the war and post-war period - A new level of emergency surgical and intensive care in accordance with modern standards of care in 24/7 mode - Medical care for the population taking into account higher safety standards and requirements, taking into account the presence of a protective civil defense structure - Improve indicators of the stable operation of the hospital under martial law, energy efficiency of the health care facility, reduction of energy consumption and, accordingly, saving budget funds - Expand the range of medical services, including through the introduction of minimally invasive technologies and new areas of highly specialized medical care - Increase the number of patients by reducing the duration of the patient's stay in bed and bringing medical care in line with modern European standards of emergency care

The project for the construction of a new surgical building provides for a 3-story building with 48 beds with anti-radiation shelter. The shelter, designed for 144 people, should include: intensive care wards, a modern operating room, an emergency care area. Currently, construction work on the new building of the building has begun at an active pace. As of today, the first stage of construction is already at the completion stage - monolithic works (foundation) have been carried out, which indicates the real implementation of the project and a high degree of readiness of the infrastructure for the following stages. In parallel, work is underway to coordinate medical equipment, equipment and furniture, and plan the shelter in accordance with civil protection standards. The new building will include modern operating rooms, an intensive care unit, intensive care wards and high-tech equipment, which will allow significantly increasing the number of surgical interventions by 10-15%, reducing the level of postoperative complications and reducing the duration of patients' stay in the hospital. This will contribute to the increase in bed turnover and optimization of the load on medical personnel. The presence of anti-radiation shelter will ensure the continuity of care even in emergency conditions. - The annual number of surgical interventions that the building will be able to provide - 3,000 operations - Reduction of waiting time for a planned operation - from 30 to 10 days - Increasing the availability of surgical care for residents of the region - 15% The new building will be designed in accordance with modern state building standards, sanitary and epidemiological requirements and infection control, which will ensure: - physical safety of patients thanks to modern engineering systems, evacuation exits, video surveillance systems, fire extinguishing and alarm systems; - compliance with infectious safety requirements (flow separation, isolated operating rooms, ventilation and air disinfection systems); - reducing the risk of hospital-acquired infections due to modern conditions of stay (single and double wards, bathrooms in the departments, running water, safe handling of medical waste); - improving the logistics of moving patients, medical staff and supporting services, which will increase the efficiency and safety of providing medical care; - increasing the building's resistance to external threats, including taking into account the current security situation in the region (shelter, reliable zoning, reinforced structures). Thus, the implementation of the project will directly contribute to the creation of a safe, comfortable and modern environment for treating patients, as well as proper working conditions for medical staff. The construction project of the new surgical building provides for full architectural and functional accessibility for people with disabilities and other low-mobility groups in accordance with state building standards (DBN V.2.2-40:2018 "Inclusivity of buildings and structures") and the legislation of Ukraine in the field of barrier-free access. The following are provided: - ramps with handrails, tactile strips and lowered curbs at the entrance; - wide doorways that allow wheelchairs to pass; - elevators with voice guidance, Braille buttons; - barrier-free access to reception, diagnostic and operating rooms; - specialized bathrooms on each floor with handrails and sufficient space for maneuvering; - convenient zoning of space, intuitive navigation and information signs taking into account the needs of people with visual and hearing impairments; - fire and evacuation system designed for the safe evacuation of people with limited mobility; - accessibility to the radiation shelter, including evacuation routes that allow the movement of people with disabilities. Thus, the implementation of the project will ensure equal access to medical care for all population groups, including people with disabilities, the elderly, parents with children, and patients with temporary mobility impairments.
