Within care provided for infectious diseases various specializations are also available at the Institute. These include the county-level and regional hepatology centre for patients with infectious liver diseases and vaccination counselling provided on the county level. In 2014 a national HIV sub-centre was also established.
In terms of the number of healthcare professionals working at the institute, ours is the second largest such unit providing care for infectious diseases in the country (after Szent László Hospital, South Pest Central Hospital) at level III of progressivity for the residents of Debrecen and those of the county and the surrounding counties. Currently 75 people work in this organizational unit. As of 1st November 2015 our Institute took over the tasks of the Infectology and Pediatric Immunology Clinic at the University of Debrecen in the areas of education, research and healing-preventive care (based on a cooperation agreement). Since 2017 the Institute performs these tasks at the off-site Department of Infectology on the site of the University of Debrecen Kenézy Gyula Teaching Hospital.
