Description of the project
- Problem and need
The project solves the problem of the critical inconsistency of the maternity ward of the Artsyz Central Maternity Hospital with the rapidly increasing workload and modern standards.
- Increased workload: since 2022, as a result of optimizing the network of maternity wards, the department has become a single center for 10 communities. The number of births has increased from 344 in 2022 to 434 in 2024.
- Physical wear and tear: the building was put into operation 34 years ago (1990), and major repairs have never been carried out. Engineering communications (water supply, electricity, heating) are critically worn out, and the material and technical condition has deteriorated.
- Health risk: the lack of proper conditions worsens the psycho-emotional state of women in labor and jeopardizes the timely and high-quality provision of medical services, on which the number of live-born babies in the region directly depends.
2. Project content and features
This is an ongoing project, which has been implemented since 2025 within the framework of the Ukraine Recovery Program III.
The project involves a comprehensive overhaul of the premises to modernize the department. Key areas of work:
- Complete renovation of engineering networks: replacement of communications (sewerage, water supply, heating, electric lighting, ventilation) to ensure reliable and uninterrupted operation.
- Modernization of premises: dismantling of old coatings, installation of new partitions, ceilings, screeds, replacement of windows and doors with metal-plastic blocks, as well as finishing.
3. Expected results
- Increased reliability and quality: bringing the department to modern sanitary and hygienic standards, which guarantees safer and higher-quality services.
- Increased throughput: the overhaul will increase the number of beds from 25 to 35, ensuring comfortable service for the growing flow of patients.
- Social effect: improving conditions will contribute to the rapid rehabilitation of women. In addition, 5 new jobs will be created, including for IDPs.
The project is a strategic investment in the protection of motherhood and childhood, providing a vital medical service for the entire region.
The purpose of the project
Main Goal:
Increasing compliance with modern standards
Secondary Goal:
Increasing compliance with modern standards, Improving the equality of wealth distribution, Improving the condition of infrastructure, Ensuring inclusiveness and equal opportunities, Introducing innovations and energy-efficient solutions, Creation of new jobs through project implementation, Improving the quality of services, Reducing territorial or social gaps, Meeting demand
Description of the purpose of the project and ways to achieve it
1. The main goal of the project is a comprehensive modernization and overhaul of the maternity ward of the Artsyzka TsOL KNP to increase the reliability, quality and throughput of medical services in order to effectively serve the growing number of women in labor in 10 communities of the Odessa region.
2. Method of achieving the goal (list of works)
The goal will be achieved through a full range of capital repair and construction works aimed at updating the internal infrastructure and engineering systems of the department.
a. preparatory and dismantling works
b. construction and assembly and structural works
c. updating of engineering systems and communications: water supply and sewage, electricity supply, heating and ventilation
d. finishing works.
The implementation of these works will ensure the necessary transformation of the department from a physical, functional and sanitary-hygienic point of view, allowing to increase the number of beds and, accordingly, increase the throughput of the department.
Problems and solutions resulting from project implementation
The maternity ward of the Artsyzka Central Regional Hospital has become a critically important regional center after optimizing the network and closing smaller departments in 2022. The department serves women in labor from 10 communities of the Odessa region. The load has increased rapidly: in 2022 - 344 deliveries, in 2024 - 434 deliveries.
The main problem: The existing condition of the department (worn-out infrastructure, engineering networks and outdated premises) did not meet the sharply increased load and modern requirements. This threatens the reliability of medical services, the quality of care and, accordingly, the timeliness of receiving assistance in territorial accessibility. Without major repairs, there is a high risk of emergencies and a decrease in the level of live births, since their number directly depends on the high-quality and uninterrupted operation of the department.
The implementation of the maternity ward overhaul project will completely solve the problem, ensuring the reliability and quality of services for the growing number of patients:
1. Increasing reliability and quality:
A complete modernization of engineering networks (electricity, heating, ventilation) will eliminate the risk of accidents, guaranteeing the uninterrupted provision of assistance, which is vital during childbirth.
The creation of modern delivery rooms and comfortable wards will allow the implementation of the latest protocols for childbirth and ensure that services comply with national standards.
2. Social and demographic impact:
The department has consolidated the status of a single, stably functioning center, ensuring that more than 400 women in labor per year from 10 communities receive assistance in a timely manner and close to home.
Result for communities: providing a high-quality and safe environment for childbirth is a direct contribution to the positive dynamics of fertility in the region and increases the trust of communities in local medicine.
