| Popis: | Velikim zalaganjem Andrije Štampara 1920-ih i 1930-ih došlo je do reorganizacije i unaprjeđivanja zdravstvene službe. Pri tome je golemo značenje imala njegova zamisao o potrebi osnivanja i otvaranja domova zdravlja diljem Kraljevine Srba, Hrvata i Slovenaca, tj. potonje Kraljevine Jugoslavije. Otvaranjem Doma narodnoga zdravlja u Osijeku s brojnim službama, napose dispanzerskom i protuepidemijskom, osigurana je u gradu na Dravi bolja zdravstvena zaštita stanovništva. Rad Doma narodnoga zdravlja odvijao se potpuno u skladu s tadašnjim programom socijalne medicine koju je zastupao Štampar, koji je do 1930. u nekoliko navrata boravio u Osijeku. U sastavu novootvorenoga Doma narodnoga zdravlja djelovale su gradska i školska poliklinika, sanitarna inspekcija, anti-TBC i kožno‑venerični dispanzer, antitrahomska i antirabična stanica, dječji dispanzer, zubni odjel i Higijenski zavod, dok su pokusne životinje, potrebne za rad zavodskoga bakteriološkog laboratorija, držane – do izgradnje posebne dvorišne zgrade (1958/59) – u dvorišnoj zgradi koja se nalazila uz zgradu u kojoj je danas Odjel neurologije, dakle u sklopu osječke Opće bolnice. The great commitment of Andrija Štampar in the 1920s and 1930s paved the way for the reorganisation and improvement of the public health service. His ideas about the necessity of founding and opening public health centres and stations throughout the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later the Kingdom of Yugoslavia) played a very important role in these efforts. The opening of the Public Health Centre in Osijek, which encompassed numerous services including a dispensary and anti-epidemic service, secured a higher quality of healthcare for the local population. The Public Health Centre functioned fully in accordance with the then programme of social medicine advocated by Štampar, who resided in Osijek several times before 1930. The newly opened Public Health Centre included a city and school polyclinic; a sanitary inspection service; an anti-TB, skin, and venereal diseases dispensary; an anti-trachoma and anti-rabies station; a children’s dispensary; a dental department; and a Hygiene Institute, while the experimental animals necessary for the working of the institute’s bacteriological laboratory were kept – until the construction of a dedicated outbuilding (in 1958/59) – in an outbuilding located next to the building housing the Neurology Department today (part of the Osijek General Hospital). |
