Can I go to the sanatorium when I still have a few sick days to rehabilitate my arm? Of course I will take care of my hand.
It would be best to consult a doctor about a broken arm and a stay in a sanatorium. Staying in a sanatorium is associated with therapeutic procedures, in which you must participate. Spa hospital treatment and rehabilitation in a spa hospital is free of charge and takes place as part of a sick leave.
In the case of spa sanatorium treatment and rehabilitation in a he alth resort sanatorium, the patient comes for treatment as part of the holiday leave and pays the sanatorium fee in accordance with the ordinance of the Minister of He alth (Journal of Laws No. 139 item 1136, as amended) Treatment spa treatment is a continuation of the patient's inpatient or outpatient treatment, usually when they are still on sick leave. Its purpose is rehabilitation, treatment of chronic diseases and prevention. The sanatorium fee exemption applies only to employees employed in plants related to the production of asbestos-containing products. The partial payment for the costs of food and accommodation in the sanatorium differs depending on the season and the standard of the room. Patients are also required to pay the resort fee in accordance with the resolutions of local city offices.
