Visit of Kazakh medical students

The students chose Hořovice on the recommendation of Pharmacy Management, which also organized their visit to the Czech Republic. The foreign delegation was surprised not only by the high standard of the Hořovice hospital and the newly renovated modern premises, but also by the pleasant environment and professional staff.

At the final stage of the visit, the Kazakh students were hosted by MUDr. Andrej Kovalenko, head of the surgical theatres. In their mother tongue he explained to them the organizational chart of the hospital in Horovice. They talked about the fundamental transformation that the hospital had undergone after privatisation. The future doctors were interested in the functioning of the surgical theatres, the quality of the instrumentation, etc. The subject of their inquiry into hospital conditions raised questions about the length of hospitalization of patients. During their short stay in the Czech Republic, the students have already had the opportunity to get acquainted with the environment of other medical institutions. They admitted, however, that they had not encountered anything as good as the one in Hořovice and, as they themselves said, they were pleasantly surprised by the high standard of the hospital in Hořovice.
