During the COVID outbreak, many hospitals were nominated as a support hospital for the treatment of positive tested patients infected with SARS CoV-2 virus. "Dr. Nicolae Ruşdea" Pneumophtiziology Hospital Baia Mare carried out an exceptional activity compared to the previous year considering the current epidemiological context. Major changes were made in strategies, procedures and protocols. The staff had to adapt to the new epidemiological situation through dedication and devotion. In 2020, there were no COVID outbreaks within the unit, as separate compartments were made, intended to protect the medical personnel, but also to ensure the health of the patients.
