Periodically, children and adults got sick, and they had to be sent to city clinics for treatment, the desire to restore he alth within their native walls became an incentive for the emergence of a hospital. The Intercession Hospital opened in November 1859. She was quickly completed, in the same year the building of the emergency room grew, where the first patients appeared on December 15.
