The National Children's Specialized Hospital "Okhmatdyt" is undergoing a large-scale restoration of its medical and diagnostic building, which was damaged during the Russian aggression. The work covers both facade structures and internal premises, while the hospital continuously admits young patients.

Major repairs are being carried out simultaneously in several blocks of the building. Builders have already dismantled more than 2,000 square meters of the destroyed ventilated facade and 190 meters of cladding panels, replacing them with modern energy-efficient solutions.

New brackets have been installed on more than 1,200 square meters, almost a thousand square meters of walls have been insulated, and tiling has begun.

In block B, 15 new window and door structures have been installed, and another 16 additional ones in various sections of the building. At the same time, 25 old blocks have been dismantled and 56 doors have been repaired, which will significantly increase the comfort of patients and staff.
