Particularities :

The hospital has recently received special target transfer from state authorities which allowed them to renovate the majority of the buildings and buy innovative equipment (including new MRI, CT-scans, Angiography, Lithotripsy, lab etc.). Several departments were reconstructed in accordance with the best European standards. At the present moment Pskov Regional Hospital may be considered as one of the best and fast developing state medical facilities in the North-West Russia. New management that has led the hospital sincea year ago is doing a big and successful job of creating a smoothly operating system of commercial services in the hospital.
