Włocławek Hospital Makes Spectacular Purchases | Województwo Kujawsko-Pomorskie

The Regional Specialist Hospital in Włocławek is carrying out a multi-stage investment program worth nearly 50 million PLN, covering about 250 procurement items. Through these purchases, the hospital – run by the regional self-government – is comprehensively modernizing its diagnostic and therapeutic facilities and equipping its wards with hundreds of modern devices.

Among the most recent acquisitions is an operating microscope, an advanced tool that enables extremely precise brain surgery. The funding comes from the National Recovery Plan. At the same time, the planned expansion of the hospital is progressing according to schedule, with completion expected in spring 2027.

“Alongside the hospital expansion, the purchase of modern equipment is part of a broad modernization of the facility, which is already an important – and is becoming an even more important – point on the region’s medical map,” emphasizes Marshal Piotr Całbecki.

“All our investment projects are carried out with our patients in mind. They should be diagnosed and treated using the latest medical knowledge and the most advanced techniques,” says Dariusz Szczepański, director of the Regional Specialist Hospital in Włocławek.

Surgery involving the brain requires extraordinary precision. The surgical field is often extremely small – sometimes only a few millimeters in diameter – and any mistake by the surgeon can lead to serious complications for the patient later in life. The operating microscope recently delivered to the Włocławek hospital provides a three-dimensional, magnified, and well-illuminated image, and its fluorescence technology allows for better differentiation and identification of tissues. The device cost 2.5 million PLN.

In the same delivery batch, the hospital also received:

a plasma sterilizer for the central sterilization unit,
80 infusion pumps with docking stations that integrate the management of multiple pumps simultaneously,
and an automatic formalin dispenser for the main operating block, which automates the preparation of tissue samples taken during surgery for histopathological examination.
