O mar de um azul único.
O Sol que insiste em mostrar a sua presença.
A mais bela das paisagens de serra.
E alguns dos melhores campos de golfe de Portugal.
Na cosmopolita cidade de Setúbal, a escassos quilómetros de Lisboa, numa terra de poetas há um lugar encantado
o Hotel do Sado Business & Nature * * * *

É o hotel que tem como marca o bem receber e o conforto dos seus hóspedes.
Pessoas que, como as aves migratórias que todos os anos escolhem Setúbal, também voltam sempre a este hotel.

Um lugar de acolhimento com acesso a um vasto areal branco, verdes campos de golfe, e um património histórico rico em memórias de árabes e berberes, próprios da Costa Azul.

Entregue-se à poesia de Bocage e Luísa Todi e perca-se de amores pela Serra da Arrábida, em passeios pelas margens do Sado ou a percorrer o património histórico de uma das três mais antigas cidades do país.

E do mar emanam futuras lembranças deste lugar.

Coxa Hospital for Joint Replacement (Finland)

The need for joint replacement surgery is growing constantly for instance due to population ageing.
Joint replacement hospital Coxa Oy brings top class surgical expertise to the public sector services. This operating model has proven to be lucrative, in addition to which it can be replicated in different special areas of medical science.

"Coxa's unique, so-called focus-hospital model focuses on a specific and narrow medical specialty, which is mastered excellently both qualitatively and expenditure-wise. This is based on the factor, that we are able to focus specifically in taking our own process effectively through, and on the development of our specific expertise", tells CEO Tarmo Martikainen.

Established in 2001, Coxa acts as a subcontractor in producing joint replacement surgery for its own local hospital district, according to its annual service agreement. It also offers the most challenging surgical services available nation-wide. Surgeries are also performed on patients that pay for their own treatment.

Through accumulated experience, the model according to which Tampere-based Coxa works has proven to be eligible for replication. Interest has arisen both in Finland and overseas. For instance the Tampere-based full service cardiac care facility, Sydänkeskus Oy, which opened its doors in the beginning of 2010, is focused on the holistic treatment of the heart region.

Good results

The functionality of Coxa's model is based on effective treatment processes and high utilization rate. Quality is worth the focus. The annual number of joint replacement surgeries carried out by one doctor at Coxa equals to the number of operations carried out by an entire group of surgeons of many hospitals.

The process-like nature of Coxa's operation reduces inpatient hospital days significantly, and through that also costs and complications. For instance, compared to international standards, at Coxa the number of infections and repeat surgeries is exceptionally low.

"These results have been achieved with an effective treatment process and through deepening our expertise. Patient feedback has also been extremely positive. We guide and encourage our patients to take part in independent rehabilitation", says Martikainen.

Steady growth

Also Coxa's personnel appear content.

"Our employees like the concept, because it offers us the possibility to develop into top experts in our chosen field, and work with a cutting-edge team of similar experts, Martikainen highlights.

Based on the annual number of surgeries performed at Coxa, the hospital is Finland's number one. In 2009 a total of 2647 surgeries were performed at Coxa while 2010 shows 7 percent growth compared to the previous year. "We believe that the concept according to which our patients receive excellent quality of medical care and our taxpayers a cost-efficient treatment model, has come to Finland to stay."

Also Coxa's premises are well equipped for steady growth. "The future looks promising. We are on the lookout to expand overseas as well".
