COVID-19 tests will be performed at East Tallinn Central Hospital for all patients admitted for pre-scheduled hospital treatment. Testing includes all hospitalised inpatients as well as outpatient surgery and day care patients. Patients coming for a regular outpatient visit will not be tested.
While most had time off during the holidays, the midwives in our maternity ward had their hands full. All babies due this Christmas were welcomed with opened arms.
The most outstanding employees were recognised at East Tallinn Central Hospital’s traditional end-of-year thanksgiving ceremony. During the 17th annual Employee of the Year competition, gastroenterologist–chief physician Dr Thomas Zimmerer was awarded the title of Doctor of the Year.
Dr Zimmerer has been working at the hospital since 2016 and has reorganised the work of the Centre of Endoscopy, systematised the registration of examinations and introduced referral for urgent examinations, organised the guidance of patients coming for examinations and a friendly social environment.
