served at the same time, so they were divided into two series. There is a club in pavilion 3, equipped with
chairs, side tables and a TV. Existing staff does not train patients to other activities, the sole objective
being to supervise them. Discussions with some patients revealed that they are not satisfied with the
accommodation conditions, they want to be moved to other units, and the staff "spits them up and spits
them". As regards healthcare, the number of medical staff (doctors and nurses) was insufficient to meet
all the needs of patients hospitalized.
Patients with agitation were leaning on the bed with leather links, according to the established protocols,
the contentions being recorded in the Contention Register. The hospital was not equipped with atraumatic
rooms. The hospital had only one clinician psychologist who was supposed to evaluate all hospitalized
patients. Due to supernormal therapy, therapeutic efficacy was low. There is a shortage of caregivers
and chefs, especially since, according to the unit manager, part of the staff no longer met the needs of the
patients and had skills that affected the quality of the insured services. It was proposed to amend the
Internal Regulation in the sense of applying the disciplinary sanction of termination of the labour contract
in the event of deviations such as the presence at work under the influence of alcoholic beverages, undue
behaviour towards patients, but the union opposed. A special situation was the lack of specialized security
staff and the lack of enclosure of the unit, especially since it is located in a forested area, and there is a
risk that some patients leave the unit as well as other unauthorized or wild animals enter the Hospital (the
courtyards of the pavilions were fenced and secured). There have been attempts to remedy this situation,
but without result, in the inventory of the unit not included in the enclosure of the unit, and the funds
allocated were for capital repairs, not for new investments.
The ambulance of the hospital unit was no longer technically satisfactory, so that, in emergency
situations, the Iasi Ambulance Service was called, which made it difficult and delayed the access to the
specialized medical assistance
