Написать сокращённо на английском A wide network of medical institutions to protect the health of our people. One of such medical institutions is the polyclinic. If a person falls ill he will ring up his local polyclinic and call in a doctor. When his condition isn't very poor and he has no temperature he will go to the local polyclinic and a physician will examine him there. Many specialists including therapeutists, neurologists, surgeons and others work at the polyclinic. During the medical examination a physician usually asks his patient what he complains of and according to the complaints carries on the medical examination. A physician listens to the patient's heart and lungs and measures his blood pressure and if necessary asks the patient to take his temperature. The laboratory findings which include blood analysis, the analysis of urine and other tests help a physician to make a correct diagnosis and administer a proper treatment. In addition to their consulting hours at the polyclinic local physicians go out to the calls, to examine those patients who are seriously ill and whose condition is bad. Such sick persons receive a sick-leave. They usually follow a bed regimen. Any physician of the polyclinic knows his patients very well because he treats only a definite number of patients At the local polyclinic every patient has his personal patient's card, which is filled in by his physician. Everything about the patient - the diagnosis of the disease, the administrations made by the doctor, the course of the disease, the changes in the patient's condition after the treatment - is written down in the card. If it is necessary a nurse will come to the patient's house to give him the administered injections or carry out any of the doctor's administratio
