Healthcare in Hergom

GwoltH2us - Non-Wolgos healthcare

GwoltH2us is a purely for-profit healthcare service established by a coalition of retired Wolgos doctors. The corporation employs primarily newly qualified doctors, most of whom are female, reflecting the customary practice in Hergom. To address labor shortages and reduce operational costs, GwoltH2us trains non-Wolgos nurses and assistants through its own nurse training program. This initiative is significantly supported by investments from thirteen Wolgos and Sekwntos tribes.

Non-Wolgos typically pay for medical services upon accessing the clinics, usually upfront. However, payment plans are available for emergency cases. Additionally, GwoltH2us offers prepaid packages where non-Wolgos pay a monthly fee to receive discounted healthcare when needed.

Primary Healthcare

Primary healthcare services are provided in small clinics located in neighbourhoods or small towns. Each clinic typically has one or two doctors assisted by nurses. The services offered include:

• Consultations: General health check-ups and diagnosis of common illnesses.
• Simple Treatments: Basic treatments for infections and minor conditions.
• Wound Care: First aid and suturing of minor cuts and lacerations.
• Emergency Minor Medical Interventions: Basic stabilization and referral for serious cases.
• Dispensary Services: Selling prescribed medicines directly to consumers.

Secondary Healthcare

Secondary care represents the most specialized level of care provided by GwoltH2us. Larger clinics offer access to:

• Specialist Doctors: Consultations with specialists in various fields.
• Emergency Trauma Care: Immediate care for serious injuries.
• Obstetrics: Comprehensive maternity care including delivery services.
• Surgical Interventions: Performing necessary surgeries.
• Post-Operative Care: Monitoring and care following surgical procedures.
• In-Patient Wards: Facilities for patients requiring longer-term care and treatment.
• Diagnostic Services: Access to X-rays and laboratory tests.

Limitations and Advanced Care

Due to its consumer base, GwoltH2us is largely unable to provide the advanced medical care available to the Wolgos. Chronic conditions such as cancer generally receive only palliative care for the majority of patients. However, the GwoltH2us Prewstalis Hospital has significantly expanded over the last two years and now offers advanced medical services almost on par with Wolgos hospitals, catering to the wealthiest and elite non-Wolgos of Hergom.

Facilities and Infrastructure

• Primary Clinics: Small, basic clinics for everyday healthcare needs, staffed by one or two doctors and nurses.
• Secondary Clinics/Hospitals: Larger facilities with specialist services, emergency care, surgical wards, and diagnostic capabilities.
• Prewstalis Hospital: A flagship facility providing advanced medical care for affluent non-Wolgos.

The establishment of GwoltH2us marks a significant leap forward in medical services for non-Wolgos, who, until the abolition of slavery and the founding of this corporation, had no formal access to healthcare. By offering a combination of basic primary care and more specialized services, GwoltH2us ensures that a broad segment of the population receives essential medical attention. The corporation's focus on cost-effective training and strategic investment has enabled it to extend its reach and provide critical healthcare services. The Prewstalis Hospital, in particular, stands out as a beacon of advanced care, bridging the gap for the wealthier non-Wolgos seeking high-quality medical treatment.
