Nikolaev Hospital in Peterhof is one of the oldest clinics in St. Petersburg. Several medical universities, specialized rooms and the city's largest multidisciplinary laboratory operate on the basis of the institution.
Historical background
Nikolaevskaya Hospital in Peterhof was founded in 1802 as the Palace Hospital. Gradually it was filled with services, the number of patients increased. In the 40s of the 19th century, the clinic was already cramped, there were not enough places, and Emperor Nicholas I, by his decree, ordered the construction of a new hospital to the court architect Benois.
The opening of the medical institution took place in 1858, Alexander II attended the ceremony. A little more time passed, and the Nikolaevskaya hospital again required expansion. This time, A. Semenov took up the solution of the architectural complex. In the project, he successfully combined old and new buildings without violating the unity of the complex. The discovery took place in 1905.
After the revolution, in 1918, the clinic was already state-owned and accepted children andadults. The treatment was carried out on an outpatient basis in the therapeutic, urological, gynecological, surgical and other departments. The main post-revolutionary problem of medicine was infectious diseases. Measles, typhus, whooping cough raged in the country. An infirmary was organized in the clinic.
War time for Peterhof and the Nikolaev hospital became the most difficult - the front line passed through the city, the occupation came. By the return of the Red Army in 1944, few local residents survived, and the city was completely destroyed. Those who managed to survive during the occupation went to partisan detachments.
Restoration work began in 1944, it was decided to rebuild only historically valuable buildings, the Benois hospital was on the list. Citizens and employees of the hospital took part in the work. The surviving premises were equipped with stationary wards for surgical and therapeutic departments with 100 beds. By the end of 1944, the hospital reached full service capacity.
In subsequent years, the clinic was constantly expanding, new services appeared - a maternity ward, an ambulance station, new buildings were rebuilt and the bed capacity expanded. At the end of the 20th century, almost all services and departments were located in new buildings, a reorganization was carried out that divided the areas of activity - a polyclinic and a hospital appeared as independent medical institutions. In the late 90s, the hospital again became known as Nikolaevskaya, and the new century became a springboard for development, refurbishment andimprove service quality.
