Medical Recovery Hospital BICAZ – 2022

One year ago, a unique medical project was initiated in Neamț County, an unprecedented endeavor within the Romanian medical system, tailored to the needs of patients and addressing medical deficiencies in Neamț County and the surrounding region. The project was adapted and transformed from an Emergency Reception Unit into a medical recovery center, encompassing multiple areas of medical activity. This project required substantial financial and physical efforts, and on the eve of Christmas 2022, the construction of the Bicaz Medical Recovery Hospital was completed.

Within this modular medical unit, neurological and post-SARS-CoV-2 infection medical rehabilitation will take place. The goal of this investment is to successfully contribute to the medical recovery of patients with various musculoskeletal and neurological conditions, as well as those who have undergone COVID-19 (infected with SARS-CoV-2), through the use of modern medical equipment and technology, by specialized personnel in this field, within an exceptional environmental space.

In this modular unit, patients benefit from relaxation, therapies to reduce muscular and joint pain, improve osteo-articular mobility, manage issues related to advanced age through medical and neurological rehabilitation, as well as respiratory rehabilitation for chronic pulmonary diseases and post-SARS-CoV-2 infection. Additionally, healthy individuals can also access physiotherapy services, as primary preventive care significantly reduces the risk of developing diseases that, over time, can lead to temporary or permanent work disability or even invalidity.

Furthermore, a space dedicated to salt therapy has been arranged within this modular unit. It is unanimously recognized that salt therapy is extraordinarily beneficial for the respiratory, nervous, and immune systems, as inhaled salt particles possess mucociliary, disinfectant, bactericidal, anti-inflammatory, and hydrophilic properties.

Implementing this project within the Sf. Ierarh Nicolae City Hospital in Bicaz will be advantageous for the local population and beyond, thanks to the multiple benefits of physiotherapy, kinesitherapy, and salt therapy.
