Activity
There are 41 beds in the department and we take care of many cases with different system diseases like the respiratory system, urinary system, heart, infectious diseases, neurological system, gastrointestinal, toxicology, immune diseases and malignant disease. A special wing in the department is dedicated for patients with malignancies of the hematological system and other malignancies. The intention of hospitalization is to diagnose the patient problem and give the specific treatment so that he can return to his basic state. Many patients will need diagnostic tests like laboratory tests, radiology and, sometimes, invasive procedures.
The department is recognized by the Israeli Medical Council for full residency in internal medicine and it is affiliated to the faculty of medicine of the Ben Gurion University of the Negev. Students receive lectures and medical training from the senior physicians of the department and interns get their specialization license after 5 years of residency in the department. Medical students from abroad integrate with the staff for a limited period.
The physicians at the internal medicine C are involved in many local and international researches. Moreover, the senior and junior physicians are required to take part in departmental seminars and multi-professional discussions on patients with serious conditions.
