OPERATING DEPARTMENT
The Operating Department is a department designed to support surgeons, and it organizes surgical interventions (surgery).
There are four operating rooms on the fourth floor of Meremeeste hospital block, equipped to meet the needs of general surgery, urological and orthopaedic operations.
DAY SURGERY
We operate on day surgery patients either in the day surgery department on the 2nd floor of the Meremeeste Hospital block or on the 4th floor of the Operating Department.
The patients in day surgery are generally patients who recover rapidly from operations; they spend over four hours in the department and are released by evening as outpatients.
Most day surgery patients at the hospital have varicose veins and similar pathologies, but patients with abdominal or inguinal hernias, carpal tunnel syndrome and problems necessitating hand surgery are also operating on in day surgery.
