The year 2021 was a difficult time for the entire healthcare system. Once again, we had to conduct our daily work amid the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused hundreds of thousands of infections and thousands of deaths worldwide. However, the fight against the dangerous virus continued not only in scientific laboratories and large hospitals, but in every one of our medical and treatment offices. Including clinics NZOZ Your Doctor we recognized 3334 SARS-CoV-2 cases.
Thanks to the commitment of the entire TEAM, we demonstrated that global challenges must be tackled locally, in our immediate surroundings. Despite pandemic restrictions, each month our doctors provided an average of 15 thousand Each of these visits meant more than just a medical examination and immediate attention to ailments. Each was an opportunity to promote vaccinations—the only effective method so far to combat the coronavirus.
This work has become part of the joint efforts undertaken by the Kobierzyce Commune Office and the NZOZ Twój Lekarz (Your Doctor Public Healthcare Facility). Thanks to the campaign, which has been ongoing since August, ZA#ACCAPSULATED CARPETS The commune has been ranked among the top in both regional and national rankings. Now Kobierzyce has a vaccination rate of 65% They rank second in Lower Silesia, after Wrocław, and 32nd in the country. They also won PLN 2 million in prizes in two competitions organized by the Chancellery of the Prime Minister as part of the National Vaccination Program.
Joint efforts pay off. The greatest achievement, however, isn't awards and rankings, but the safety of the local community. Therefore, we owe our gratitude to all those who volunteered for vaccination out of a sense of responsibility, not only for their own health but also for the safety of those around them. This attitude allows us to look to 2022, which begins with another wave of the pandemic, with a measure of hope.
The fight against COVID-19, which has engaged significant resources at NZOZ Twój Lekarz, has not derailed our development plans. As planned, in 2021 we managed to launch the only NZOZ Twój Lekarz in the Wrocław County in Kobierzyce. OPHTHALMOLOGICAL LASER THERAPY LABORATORYOphthalmology and diabetology specialists are implementing a diabetic retinopathy prevention program developed by NZOZ Twój Lekarz under the slogan KEEP AN EYE ON DIABETESSo far, over 800 people have used it.
In the interests of our youngest patients and their parents, we have established EARLY CHILD CARE TEAMIn addition to pediatricians and midwives, the team includes an orthopedist running the preluxation clinic, an otolaryngologist assessing the lingual frenulum, a speech therapist, a lactation consultant, a pediatric physiotherapist, and a Shantala babywearing and massage instructor. The birth of a baby and the first months of life are a special time for every family. At such times, families need special support, advice, and care.
The seasonal increase in flu cases combined with another wave of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a huge increase in interest in medical advice. PRIMARY HEALTH CARETo make registration easier, we have launched a new line for patients using POS. At the number 71 715 80 00 Callers can choose medical consultations for children or adults. They also specify the purpose of the visit. This solution shortens the waiting time for registration in cases of acute illness.
