The only maternity ward for the Sovetsky and Nizhnegorsky regions of Crimea may be closed

CrimeaPRESS reports:

At the maternity ward in the Soviet Central District Hospital, the unpleasant prospect of optimization through closure rattled. Representatives of the People’s Front found out how future mothers feel about this in the maternity wards, local residents and medical staff right on the spot and called on the Ministry of Health of Crimea to take into account the importance of this department when making a decision on optimization.

We decided to close the maternity ward in the Soviet Republic of Belarus. Despite the fact that our maternity hospital has been operating for two districts for the second year. The maternity department accepts the Nizhnegorsk region and its own. It is scary that this threatens the health of mother and child. Indeed, sometimes from Nizhnegorsk they barely manage to bring a woman into childbirth. And it’s an hour and a half drive to the city. Please help the residents of the Soviet district of the Republic of Crimea in this situation. Sincerely, caring residents of the region, born and not yet born here …, — such an appeal was received by the People’s Front of Crimea.

Representatives of the Presidential Movement the next day on the spot learned the reasons for the possible closure and the attitude of all interested people to it. The optimization of the maternity wards in district hospitals is indeed taking place, especially given certain problems in the ward itself. And this question is now really being discussed. But neither expectant mothers, nor residents of the districts, nor medical staff definitely want him.

We are in our fourth birth, they can quickly pass, where are we without our doctors? , one of the mothers in the wards greets the Popular Front.

I want to give birth here, even if they close, we will still come to our doctors!, — the second one supports her.

And the doctors carefully ask the mothers, who have also reached these rumors, not to worry, now the main thing is the health of their future children. The department itself does not experience a shortage of personnel — all the medical staff are on staff and are ready to work. And the residents even launched a petition asking them to keep the branch.

Participants of the Presidential Movement discussed the issue with the Crimean Ministry of Health, regional authorities and the chief doctor of the regional hospital. The fate of the branch will be decided based on the results of the work of a special commission. The main thing is that in addition to the arguments “for” the closure, all the reasons “against” should be sounded, confirmed by both the population and the doctors themselves.

Yesterday, people came with extremely disturbing news — the possible closure of the maternity ward in the Soviet Central District Hospital. The department has all the medical staff and there is a desire among employees to improve their knowledge. The main thing is that the decision should be made for the people, not the bureaucracy!
