People's General Hospital ( Greek: Γενικό Νοσοκομείο Αθηνών «Λαϊκό») is a public teaching hospital in Athens, Greece. The hospital belongs to the Greek National Healthcare System under the 1st Healthcare Region of Attica [1] and comprises numerous clinics, labs, inpatient wards and outpatient departments.
History
Laiko General was established in 1933 as "Λαϊκόν Νοσοκομείον Αθηνών"(People's Hospital of Athens), a Legal Entity of Public Law in the location of the University pavilion in Goudi under the Ministry of Health (then referred to as the Ministry of State Hygiene and Perception). The hospital's founding purpose was to provide fundamental health services for indigent citizens-and was thus named "Λαϊκόν" (People's)-and the concurrent training of doctors, medical students and nurses. The hospital gradually expanded to include more departments, equipment and clinics and housed a Physical Therapy and Nursing School. [2]
Hospital departments
Laiko General Hospital is organized under three main departments: Pathology, Surgery and Laboratory Depts. [3]
The hospital also has seven Centers of Expertise for Rare Diseases, namely: [4]
- Center for Thalassaemia and Sickle Cell Disease - Rare Hematological Diseases
