The article provides some results of the realization of the programme of development during 1980-1989 at a large medical institution--a medical unit of V. A. Degtyarev plant. The complex solution of curative and preventive issues, organization of labour made it possible to considerably raise the level of health care not only for the industrial workers but also for residents of the city and of the region as a whole. Social problems of health workers are solved in many respects. During the given period loss of working time due to diseases dropped almost by 1/3. The business relations established between the medical unit and industrial enterprises would permit to gradually shift to a self-supported and cost-accountable activity.
