The entrance to the hospital is from the Pervomaiskji street. The first, red building (A) is a gynaecological clinic and a maternity welfare clinic.

Site plan over the Novozybkov Maternity Hospital, a picture of a model from the town architect office.
To begin from the bottom (Pervomaiskji street) first comes the red building (A) and then comes the white building (B).
The third building in this model does not exist. This building is what we call building C. Dr Lydia needs it badly to be able to give acceptable health care to the women of Novozybkov who give birth to 700 sick, bleach and weak children every year. The building, however, is not included in the project plan.
The forth (white) building in this model is a future dream placed where the existing laboratory is.


The site plan and surroundings.


Building A

The gynaecological clinic and the maternity welfare clinic.



The gynaecological clinic and the maternity welfare clinic is situated in a two floor building of stone built 1932. It was ruined during the Second World War but built up again 1953. Since then the building has not been renovated. Rain and snow have coming in through the roof during many years, why parts of the ceiling here and there have falling down on the pregnant women.

The gynaecological clinic has 40 beds for patients. Every year around 1850 women are treated for cancer, ovum and matrix inflammation, myom in the matrix, complications during the pregnancy, spontaneous abortion and prenatal death of the foetus. The maternity welfare clinic in the same building treats 150 (!) patients per day.
