Топик "Здоровье" рассказывает, в каком случае мы вызываем врача на дом и как он диагностирует заболевание. Чтобы выздороветь, надо точно выполнять все указания врача. В сложных случаях лучше провести лечение в стационаре, а затем - неплохо отдохнуть пару недель в санатории. Приводится описание новых форм оказания медицинской помощи жителям России.

When we are ill, we call the doctor. He examines us and gives the diagnosis. When we have a headache, a stomachache, a sore throat, a cold, or a pain in some parts of our body, we call the doctor. He takes our temperature and our pulse. He examines our heart, our lungs, our stomach or the part where we have pain, and tells us what the matter is with us. The doctor prescribes medicine and gives us the prescription, which we take to the chemist who makes up the medicine.

If you follow doctor's orders, you get better; if you disobey the doctor, you may get worse or even die. We must obey the doctor, if we want to get better. If we have a temperature, we must stay in bed and take the medicine he prescribed. If we cannot get better at home, we must go to the hospital.

If we are too ill to walk, we call an ambulance. After that, we can visit a sanatorium until we feel strong and healthy again.

When we have a toothache, we go to the dentist. He examines our teeth, finds the tooth which hurts us, stops or extracts it.

Now here in Russia health system incorporates a variety of medical institutions. The medical service in Russia is of two kinds. Some state establishments give their employees medical insurance cards. They guarantee free medical assistance. Some medical establishments charge fees for treatment. They may be rather high, but our medical service uses modern equipment and medicine, and provides qualified medical help to all people.
