A patient satisfaction survey will be carried out at East Tallinn Central Hospital from 4 April to 8 May. The survey will be carried out by interviewing a random sample of outpatients. The aim of the survey is to understand patients' expectations regarding communication and involvement. The questionnaire-based feedback used in the past has this year been replaced by interviews as it gives us a better understanding of the patients' experience and helps us ascribe meaning to it.

In Estonia, coronavirus cases have been on a downward trend, therefore Estonians have been able to enjoy access to restaurants, theatres, cinemas and gyms for some time now without a COVID pass. The government's decision to do away with the COVID pass in Estonia and to lift the time restrictions imposed on cultural and dining establishments is an important step towards the return to normal life.

East Tallinn Central Hospital Breast Health Office celebrates 10 years of operation in March. During this time, the office has seen more than 50,000 patients. The office was set up to provide a place to turn to with any breast-related questions or concerns and get the necessary medical care quickly and conveniently.

According to Chief Physician and Mammologist Gabor Szirko, over the past ten years, the office has transformed into a modern breast centre where people can get help with basic breast issues as well as cancer treatment.
