The leader of the public reception office of the Party of Pensioners in the Legislative Assembly of Chelyabinsk region, Stepan Firstov, received a request from the legal representatives of patients, being on medical supervision in the urology department for children of the State medical institution of Chelyabinsk regional clinical hospital №3.
October — November this year the department operating on the basis of the hospital since 1983 has been closed. According to the Ministry of Health of the region, patients, medical stories, schedules of planned appointments and surgeries will be redirected. Teams of doctors and other medical staff will be also redirected to Chelyabinsk regional clinical hospital. Otherwise, as of today, this had not happened: department is empty, doctors are forced leaved or deny opportunity to work in their specialty.
Parents of young patients are worried, that of today there is no proper and well-qualified healthcare services, that had been providing for many years at the urology department for children of the State medical institution of Chelyabinsk regional clinical hospital №3, taking the fact, that many of patients had been observing and surging therein since they were born.
According to this request, an official letter is sent to the Ministry of Health of Chelyabinsk region. «We can not leave without our attention such an arbitrariness. We must bring back doctors and nurses to the profession. Situation is really difficult. We have held a number of meetings and, at that moment, have clear understanding that due to negligence of officials a lot of well-qualified pediatric urologists intend to move out of Chelyabinsk region!
Taking the growing shortage of doctors in region, such situation must not be possible. Hard and noble work of doctors must be elementary respected. We must safe and protect those doctors, who are in the Health system today!» noted Stepan Firstov.
