Asociatia ELPIS se alatura campaniei de strangere de fonduri demarata de Spitalul Clinic de Urgenta pentru Copii „Louis Turcanu” Timisoara, principalul furnizor de servicii medicale cu profil pediatric din zona de vest a Romaniei, in vederea solutionarii gravelor probleme imobiliare cu care acesta se confrunta.
Desi este un spital cu traditie, infiintat in anul 1903, si care trateaza zilnic peste 200 de pacienti, in urma retrocedarii unor imobile in care a functionat, ar putea ramane fara sectiile de Chirurgie si Ortopedie Pediatrica, inclusiv Compartimentele de Anestezie si Terapie Intensiva, fara sectiile ORL, Oftalmologie, Pneumologie, Ftiziologie si fara Laborator.
Cu doua cladiri revendicate si mai multe sectii pe cale de evacuare, spitalul are solutia construirii si dotarii unui nou stabiliment, cu 5 etaje si o capacitate de 170 de paturi, in care sa functioneze atat sectiile din cladirile retrocedate, cat si Sectia Clinica de Neonatologie-Prematuri, Laboratorul de Radiologie si Imagistica si Laboratorul de Anatomie Patologica, plus o parte din serviciul administrativ, care actualmente functioneaza in conditii improprii.
Suma necesara pentru construirea si dotarea noului corp este estimata la 15 milioane euro, dar campania desfasurata sub sloganul „Da un leu pentru copilul tau!” de catre Asociatia pentru Spitalul de Copii „Louis Turcanu” Timisoara, nu a reusit insa, dupa 4 luni, sa stranga prea multi bani. Asociatia ELPIS vine in sprijinul acestui demers si se va implica activ, printr-o campanie proprie, in constituirea unui fond destinat solutionarii acestei probleme, care priveste, pana la urma, orasul si intreaga comunitate.

ELPIS Association has joined the fundraising campaign launched several months ago by “Louis Turcanu” Emergency Hospital for Children Timisoara, the main pediatric hospital in Western Romania, whose viability is seriously challenged at the moment.
With more than a century-long tradition of providing medical care and 200 patients treated each day, the hospital founded in 1903 is now facing the threat of not being able to ensure continuity for some important services. The Sections of Pediatric Surgery and Orthopedics, including the Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Departments, Otolaryngology (ENT), Ophthalmology, Pulmonary, Phthisiology and also the Laboratory could be closed down.
Due to some legal issues concerning property restitution of the current building and to several of its sections being under eviction procedures already, the construction of a new five-story building, with a capacity of 170 beds, became a must in order for the hospital to be able to function properly. The new edifice could also shelter the Clinical Division of Neonatology – Prematures, the Radiology and Imaging Laboratory and the Pathological Anatomy Laboratory, as well as the administrative services, which currently operate in improper working conditions.
The necessary amount of money is estimated at 15 million RON, but the campaign held under the slogan “Spare one leu for your child” by the Association for “Louis Turcanu” Emergency Hospital for Children Timisoara, hasn’t been very successful in the past few months. ELPIS Association is supporting this cause and has joined in the effort to raise money for solving this problem that concerns the entire community.
