St. Vladimir hospital in Sokolniki: photos and reviews

Charity at its core often has real events. So, St. Vladimir's hospital in Moscow was based on the funds of a man who built railways in Russia. In our time, this person would be called a shark business, he managed not only to connect the Ryazan and Michurinsk, Kursk and Kiev railways, but also to make friends with all the officials of that time using the state treasury for personal purposes. The name of this person is Pavel Grigorievich von Derviz.

The best memory of children

Von Derviz for a few years has become a fabulously rich man. Simultaneously with the construction of roads, he organized joint-stock companies, successfully invested in shares and received dividends. The eldest son Vladimir was born. However, his son's life was short. He died one year after birth from bone tuberculosis. In 13 years the second son Andrei was born. And history repeated itself. Neither the best French doctors nor the unlimited capitals could save the life of the second son, he was also buried at the age of one.

In memory of the sons of St. Vladimir, the hospital bears the name of the firstborn von Derviz. The founder asked the governor of Moscow that the hospital always bear the name of the son, was exemplarily kept and had 100 places for free treatment of orphans and poor children. All the conditions of the donor were fulfilled.

The hospital began accepting children from 0 to 12 years from August 1, 1876.

The Soviet period

At this time the hospital was renamed, perpetuating the name of the deceased Commissioner Rusakov, he was a doctor by training.

The change of the name did not in any way affect the highest professional level of medical care provided to children.

Long 35 years in the hospital worked as an outstanding child surgeon Stanislav Doletsky. With his name are associated with such unique techniques as correction of developmental anomalies, emergency surgical manual for infringed hernia of newborns, separation of Siamese twins. A lot of children born with a face cleft still operate on his technique, which allows one to immediately avoid a cosmetic defect. Also, according to the methods developed by Doletsky, extensive patch marks are eliminated in several stages.

The former name was returned to the hospital in 1991.

Unique department

St. Vladimir's Hospital has a department that has no equal until now. This department of reconstructive surgery of the larynx, founded by Professor Chireshkin. Here sick children from all over the country are flocking - and go out with the ability to breathe and swallow independently.

Today this department is united with the thoracal department, but its "brand" has not lost.

Departments and services

Today St. Vladimir's Hospital has 25 branches. They are grouped in groups:

• Clinical and diagnostic;
• Surgical;
• Infectious;
• Somatic.

Diagnostic departments include ultrasound, laboratory, X-ray, endoscopic and functional diagnostics.

Departments of surgical profile

The hospital of St. Vladimir in Sokolniki is traditionally strong precisely by surgery. Here, preterm and newborn babies receive surgical benefits, special conditions are required for them. Treat children with purulent processes, with the pathology of the face and jaws, suffering from the consequences of injuries or with the pathology of the development of the bone system. Separation of thoracic (or thoracic) surgery is indicated. The work of 11 operating units is accompanied by specialists from anesthesia, resuscitation and hemodialysis departments. Used gravitational blood surgery.

The design of the operating units is such that, in any surgery, you can do it on your own: there are enough specialists and equipment. This allows you to save life and health of children with congenital pathology, the expense of life which sometimes goes for a minute.

Infant Infections

This is an indicator of the general well-being of this particular society. St. Vladimir's Infectious Diseases Hospital has 3 departments:

• Boxed infectious.
• ARVI (includes a syndrome of false croup or acute narrowing of the respiratory tract).
• Intestinal branch.

Pediatricians annually sum up the sad results: how many children died from indomitable diarrhea and how much it suffocated in a dream. Features of the organism of young children are such that the usual infection for an adult develops in them lightning fast - so quickly that there is no time to resist. Cope with an infection of any genesis will be St. Vladimir's Hospital. The infectious department accepts all children with unclear fevers, infectious mononucleosis, or any other difficult-to-diagnose conditions.

A place where children are rescued

Today St. Vladimir's Hospital in Sokolniki renders 24-hour emergency and emergency assistance. At any time you can bring a seriously ill child here, and the chances of his survival here are used completely.

On weekdays, there is an advisory department, where, according to the signs of the illness, they specify which specialist should be treated for the child. This is extremely important for parents and children: many young couples do not have their own experience, and children do not know how to speak. Preliminary diagnosis here is exhibited in a matter of minutes. And the child can get specialized help on time.

Children of different ages

Hospital St. Vladimir accepts and treats children from the period of newborn to 17 years of age. The union of such different ages is justified from the point of view of physiology. A two-meter-long young man may look like an adult, but all his organs and systems are not fully matured, which doctors consider in their work.

So, through the department of hemodialysis, thousands of patients who managed to survive to a donor kidney transplantation only through high blood purification technologies passed.

Clinical base

The modern Rusakovo hospital of St. Vladimir is the base of many scientific institutions. There are postgraduate training of practicing doctors from all over Russia. The specialists of the Moscow Medical-Stomatological Institute are improving. On the basis of the hospital, students and post-graduate students of the First Moscow State University are trained. Sechenov.

The hospital has joint work and close links with the Research Institute. Vladimirsky, better known as MONIKI.

It is in the Rusakovo hospital that children can receive all kinds of high-tech medical care that is inaccessible in other medical institutions. What is important is that most diagnostic and treatment activities are carried out for sick children free of charge, within the framework of CHI.

It is envisaged as a round-the-clock treatment in the departments, and stay in the day hospital.

A tangible spirituality

Simultaneously with the laying of hospital buildings on the territory of the hospital, the Trinity Life-Giving Temple was founded, in which the family burial vault Dervizov was equipped. The church received the name in honor of the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir, the spiritual patron of the deceased first-born.

The temple survived difficult times, was consecrated for the second time after reconstruction in 1995. Here, newborns are baptized and maternity patients are grabbed. Parents can always pray for the health of their children. On Fridays, there are prayer services for the health of the sick.

The efforts of spiritual pastors and doctors are not in vain: every year more than 100,000 children turn to the hospital, many find a second life here.

A spoon of tar

Parents who have visited any of the offices give feedback that leaves mixed feelings. On the one hand - excellent staff, literacy and coherence of work which are unmatched, on the other - a complete lack of basic amenities. The last repair was carried out in 2012 in the thoracic department. The operating units are in a normal state, but the problem with the wards. They are few, like toilets. There are not enough baths and showers, there are crowding and stuffiness. Parents huddle literally on chairs, enduring the difficulties of life. But even in these extremely difficult conditions, the staff maintains cleanliness, preventing the development of nosocomial infection.

An honored old hospital clearly requires investments and attention.
