Continued investment in improvement of health system

Novi Sad, 29 April 2021

Prime Minister Ana Brnabic visited today works on the reconstruction of the Clinical Centre of Vojvodina in Novi Sad and construction of entirely new blocks B and C.

Brnabic said that the works in this clinical centre will mean a lot for entire Vojvodina and underlined that this construction site is only a small portion of what the state is doing on strengthening the health system.

She recalled that as part of the project "One billion euros for health system", launched in 2017 by Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic, a lot has been done already, and that the works are currently underway on the construction of new, as well as reconstruction of the existing community health centres, general hospitals and clinical centres in Serbia.

The works are in progress on the general hospitals in Pirot, Prokuplje, Smederevska Palanka and Loznica. The construction of Blocks B and C of the Clinical Centre of Vojvodina started more than 30 years ago and were in an unregulated situation for a long time, the Prime Minister said and added that these facilities are the picture of everything Serbia is today – a country thriving with work and construction.

According to her, some projects in the health sector are financed directly from the budget, such as the complete reconstruction of the Clinic for Internal Diseases within the Clinical Centre of Vojvodina, in which €7 million was invested.

Brnabic thanked the European Investment Bank (EIB), which had understanding for projects and investments in the health system across Serbia. She recalled that EIB also helped during the reconstruction of a part of the Clinical Centre of Serbia, and in the construction of an entirely new Clinical Centre in Nis.

Within blocks B and C of the Emergency Diagnostic Centre, the construction of a surgical block is planned, spanning around 30,000 square metres, which will consist of 16 operating rooms, intensive and semi-intensive care units with a total of 348 beds, 22 beds for surgical intensive care, 24 beds for semi-intensive surgical care and 14 beds for the unit for transplant surgery within the completely new unit of the Clinical Centre of Vojvodina. The blocks will have a total of 10 elevators and four stairwells.
