Safety is our top priority. We take great care of your children’s health as well as your condition. We are fully prepared to take care of you on these special days in a professional manner and in accordance with all procedures.
In the interest of the safety of our patients and staff, and in accordance with the recommendations of the Ministry of Health and GIS (Chief Sanitary Inspectorate), we have implemented a number of additional safety procedures in our hospital that have allowed us to continue operating, including:
- Triage, i.e. an initial epidemiological health check, was introduced in our hospital in the beginning of March.

- In the hospital everyone is required to keep an appropriate distance, as reminded by special stickers.
- There are only single-rooms for patients
- We introduced a visit ban and limited the number of people that can be present on premises at the same time.

We have a Neonatology, High-risk Pregnancy and Intensive Neonatal Care Ward equipped with the following:
- state-of-the-art incubators, including a transport incubator
- multifunctional respirators for mechanical breathing with a high-frequency ventilation option
- SIPAP Infant Flow – the system to support breathing in neonates by a non-invasive method
- Portable X-ray machine
- Mobile ultrasound scanner with colour Doppler
The Neonatology and Neonatal Intensive Care Ward and the Maternity Ward are located on the same floor of the hospital. This allows for quick intervention if necessary and in case of complications, the mother and baby are close to each other.
We are prepared for unexpected situations. The smallest child that was safely born here weighed less than 1,000 grams.
We perform screening tests and provide all necessary vaccinations.
At Medicover, we are committed to medical safety and comfort. Therefore, all tests, examinations and consultations are performed and held in the Neonatal Ward. There is no need to transport newborn babies to other places. We perform full diagnostics on site soyou and your baby are safe.
If necessary, additional consultations with other specialists are held immediately.
Hospital without pain
We have received the “Hospital without pain" certificate, which testifies to our highest standards of pain treatment.
We meet the standards

In 2014, we received the Five-Star Maternity Care Award from the International Health Commission (IHC) in recognition of our outstanding knowledge and experience in the field of obstetric care.
With this award, Medicover Hospital has joined the elite group of five-star maternity hospitals.

The hospital regularly undergoes audits by independent institutions that monitor the standards of medical safety and quality of hospital care.
The high level of our services is confirmed by certificates and awards received by the Hospital.
