The largest recovery medicine center in Romania and one of the largest in Eastern Europe was opened on Monday in the capital city of Bucharest.
The center will offer medical assistance to people who either were born physically or mentally impaired or become so later in life.
Besides the medical assistance to disabled persons, the center will also test the work capacity of such people, establish infirmity degrees and recovery as well as functional re-education programs for patients suffering from post-traumatic sequels of their bone, muscular or nervous systems.
Also available will be specialist acupuncture, laser and homeopathic services, tomography investigations, allopathic care for patients suffering from various medical conditions, including sugar diabetes, conditions of the cardiovascular system, hypertension, and high-blood cholesterol.
Patients to be hospitalized at the center will qualify for free care, based on diagnostics established by doctors, but there will also be a privately run department, which will provide care for money.
Construction on the center started in 1990, on funds raised by an association under a social campaign project mainly backed by the German Rumaniahilfe Association of Hamburg. The project was carried out under a public-private partnership that also included the Bucharest Mayoralty.
