Treat and cure. These two verbs have different sense. First means process, and the second - the result. In order to achieve the desired result, it is necessary to have several components - qualified medical workers, good hospitals, modern equipment. All this is combined in two new medical institutions of Uralsk - cardiological center and oblast hospital surgical department. When oblast akimat included these facilities in the number of social projects implemented by Karachaganak investors, he did absolutely right. Because these services in the first place must operate effectively and respond immediately. That is to work in the regime of emergency aid. As a reminder, world famous companies - BG Group, ENI, Chevron and LUKOIL - develop Karachaganak hydrocarbons. The alliance of foreign companies annually allocates USD 10 MM for social development of the region. The construction and equipment of two oblast hospital surgical buildings cost USD 5 MM to Karachaganak Petroleum Operating. The return from the investment is much higher - the price of saved lives and health. We have to mention that the demands made to the quality are very high. And the deadlines for the completion of construction are very strict. This is why the construction work is performed on time. The opening occurred in the end of July current year. Then the management of the oblast, and KPO assured that the cooperation in this important area like healthcare will be continued. Oblast akim Nurgali Ashimov pointed out that further work will be done on modernization of logistical base of medical institutions. KPO Deputy Director Nello Paterlinini in his speech talked about that obligations on the development of social infrastructure in Priural'e written out in the PSA are executed and will be executed as agreed. The hospital also received another present from Karachaganak investors - GAZEL automobile for transportation of medical instruments. Commissioning of the new department coincided in time with the visit to the oblast of Minister of Education and Science Byrganym Aytimova. It is logical that she took part in the opening ceremony. Medical personnel have a stimulus, and it is necessary to learn to work at a new level. Soon during his visit to WKO Prime Minister Daniyal AKhmetov also visited the new surgical department, said that doctors need to know English in order to have the opportunity to serve internships abroad.
Enough time passed for the staff to appreciate the hospital's potential. It is planned for 180 patients. Everything is well thought out and planned for effective and highly professional diagnosing and treatment. There is no doubt that comfortable conditions can also cure. The medical personnel most appreciates the modern equipment. Director of oblast hospital Kalimulla Irmenov is proud to tell that the quantity and quality of surgeries improved. New modern technologies of surgical treatment are learnt. Two devices 'artificial kidney' and water purification system to them were purchased. The opportunities of video computer technologies are used more widely. Doctor Asylbek Bakhayev had special training in Austria and Endland, in order to master the ultrasound equipment which provides 4-dimension picture. Showing the large number of rooms with endoscopic equipment, head of department Samarbay Mukanov explains that now a doctor can diagnose with the help of video camera can not only diagnose, but also conduct surgeries without blood. The head of face surgery department Amangeldy Kayupov has really golden hands. The knowledge and huge experience of this talented doctor work miracles. Currently his students work in many cities of Kazakhstan. In the urology department patients are checked out in a few days after the surgeries conducted with new technologies. Earlier such surgical interference required treatment during 20-30 days.
- Today the equipment is the last word in medical technologies, - says surgery department deputy head, medical sciences doctor Timur Satybaldiev. - Starting from instruments to the most modern precise equipment produced by the world famous companies. In the holy place - surgery room - everything is important. Even our floors have special anti-static cover. All this became possible thanks to the attention paid to the development of healthcare on the part of local authorities and KPO financial assistance. Working in such conditions is happiness for every doctor.
Oblast healthcare department director Ayzat Moldagasimova thinks that thanks to the seminar the highly specialized aid became more accessible. New technologies, new approaches were learnt by more than 140 Uralsk doctors. 36 surgeries were conducted, which are usually done only in the conditions of science and research institutes. And the creation of conditions close to those in the best country's hospitals became possible only in cooperation with Karachaganak investors. Such a seminar is planned for next year in the cardiological center. Already now permanent connections are established with hospitals in Almaty, Astana and Samara. A year ago at the opening of the center a delegation of cardiologists from Russia came. Delegation's head chief doctor of Samara Oblast Cardiological Hospital Sergey Khokhlunov shared the plans of expanding mutual relations. It is necessary to note that these contacts are developed in other areas.
The Cardio Center is located in city suburbs. Two new buildings of former sanatorium Meliorator were reconstructed, and re-built in fact. The construction was also funded by KPO. Clean air, river - nature itself creates good mood and improves health. Medical complex is planned for 120 patients. The chief doctor Aktlek Umirbayev told that now there is opportunity not only to help emergency patients, but also conduct planned treatment. Conservative and surgical methods are used. It is natural that people with heart problems receive special treatment. Doctors and medical personnel pay special attention. According to deputy chief doctor Nadezhda Abdrakhmanova, during one year 3500 patients improved their health. But the picture is typical. People go to cardiologist when they are already sick, and they should go to doctor earlier before a serious disease develops. Cardio reanimation department chief Talgat Gusmanov is doctor with a lot of experience. This is why he can compare previous and current conditions. They are drastically different. And the result is different. Here human lives depend on the modern thought out actions of medical personnel. Rooms are equipped with bed-side monitors measuring blood pressure, heart rate, which store these data. Observation of these data is conducted at the control panel. If necessary, artificial breath device turns on. Modern equipment is installed in all 4 departments. Plans include opening a rehabilitation department and functional diagnostics department. It is planned to increase of the volume of medical services in the oblast hospital too. KPO also sponsors the repair of two more buildings. Investors also Sponsorship the construction of perinatal center in Uralsk. Healthcare, support of improvement of medical services to the population are called main priorities in the social program of KPO. The FPSA is concluded for 40 years, and only 5 passed, ahead are more promising perspectives.
