During the First World War, the medical sector of Bukovyna suffered serious damage. The premises were damaged, the level of qualification of medical personnel decreased, there was a catastrophic shortage of medicines, a number of organizational problems appeared, etc.
The situation that developed in Chernivtsi Central Hospital (now Chernivtsi Regional Clinical Hospital) is no exception. But despite everything, the Romanian authorities began comprehensive work to improve the medical and sanitary condition of the region. To a large extent, it also affected the main hospital of the region, which had certain positive consequences.
Therefore, the article is devoted to the study of the history of Chernivtsi Central Hospital precisely during the period when the region became part of Royal Romania. Its management, changes in the structure, and material and technical condition are characterized. The work of individual departments is highlighted and achievements and problems in the work of doctors are shown.
Thanks to the efforts of the staff and funding from the government, it was possible to restore the work of all departments and create new structural units within the hospital. Along with this, there was a shortage of highly qualified doctors. The high cost of medical services was one more important problem.
