Sažetak
In this work, which is based on records from professional magazines, monographs and books, we show the development of Zadar health care in the period from the end of the Second World War until the present day (from 1945 to 2008).
The reorganization of health care service from war conditions to minimal working conditions in peacetime started with the formation of an in-patient clinic in Bokanjac in 1944 and the opening of a hospital in 1945. The new organization of health care consisted of setting up in-patient clinics and surgeries, organization of pharmaceutical activities, and holding health care courses. The opening of a city-district polyclinic in 1948 united the out-patient health care activity, and the opening of a Health Center in 1952 united the out-patient curative and preventive activities. Medicinski centar (Medical Center) in Zadar as an institutionalized form of integral health care was established in 1962. The Psychiatric Hospital in Zemunik, as Department of Psychiatry of Zadar Hospital was opened in 1949, while Ugljan Hospital of Psychiatry, as an asylum for mental patients, was opened in 1955. The drug supply activity has been carried out by
Ljekarna Zadar since1962.
The Health Care Institute, as an establishment for the complete and entire prevention and social and medical health care, was established in 1983.. Medicinski centar Zadar was divided in 1998 into General
Hospital and Health Center. Zadar General Hospital Scientific Library, the professional magazine Medica Jadertina, Scientific Unit and Croatian Medical Association Branch Office Zadar have rendered possible the conditions for professional and scientific work of health care workers.
During the Croatian War of Independence (1991-1995) health care was given to the injured and sick by workers in General Hospital, city and field surgeries and health care workers engaged in moveable medical teams as part of the fighting units of the Croatian National Guard, Croatian Army and Ministry of Internal Affairs.
In the period from the end of the Second World War until today, Zadar health care is continually on the rise in creating expert and scientific personnel and technical equipment.
