Resource Saving as an Essential Condition of Building an Effective Public Health ModelOrganization
City Hospital, a municipal public health institution
Start date: March 1, 2007 End date: December 31, 2007
Profile of organization
The City Hospital is an important social institution of Nevinnomyssk whose key objectives include health improvement of the city’s residents; provision of specialized medical and disease prevention services; hospital treatment in various areas; out-patient treatment; treatment of infective diseases; dietology; general clinical and biochemical laboratory diagnosis; diagnostic ultrasound, etc. To successfully work in these areas, the City Hospital carries out resource-saving activities on a permanent basis.
Project summary
This project will reduce expenses for water and energy consumption at the City Hospital by replacing the existing electrical cooking boilers with gas cooking boilers and modernizing the cooling system of the refrigerating unit (by replacing the water-cooled condenser with an air condenser) at the hospital’s kitchen. The project is in line with Nevinnomyssk Development Strategy and the Health Priority National Project, since it is aimed at an active implementation of techniques promoting public health improvement. The saved funds will be used for purchasing medical equipment and, thus, for improving the quality of medical services. This, in turn, will lead to a decrease of disease instances and will reduce the time patients spend at the hospital.

Anticipated results
Starting from 2008, a total of 706,606 rubles intended for the upkeep of the hospital will be saved. As of the moment of project implementation, 273,149 rubles will be saved on energy resources. The modernization of the refrigerating unit in the hospital’s kitchen will allow stopping the use of flowing water and, thus, will save 291,252 rubles. Cost savings after the gas cooking boilers are installed will amount to 415,354 rubles.
Social effect
The project will help improve the physical condition and, what is as important, the moral well-being of almost 10,000 residents of Nevinnomyssk who annually use the services of the City Hospital. Plans include increasing the assortment of dishes prepared in the hospital’s kitchen thanks to an optimization of storage conditions and the increased variety of products kept in the refrigeration unit; reducing the time of food preparation; and improving the quality of prepared dishes after the gas cooking boilers will operate in a greater number of cooking modes.
