In the polyclinics of the Khabarovsk Territory, the provision of planned medical care was canceled. Citizens of this decision of the regional government are outraged - the health care system and under the former head of the Ministry of Health "failed", but now the residents of the region are completely denied medical assistance. Yesterday there was information that the branch of polyclinic 16 in Khabarovsk was closed. All specialists from there are reassigned to covid hospitals or receive patients in another building. And about. Minister of Health of the region Evgeny Nikonov tried to calm down the Khabarovsk residents, assuring that everything was not so scary. - As for the suspension of planned care, this has affected the physiotherapy departments. This is not something burning today. But this did not affect patients with serious diseases, those who receive hemodialysis in hospitals, who need planned surgical care. Dentistry, antenatal clinics, trauma centers also work unchanged, - explained Nikonov. Meanwhile, the residents of Khabarovsk themselves tell about the situation in which medicine in the regional capital really is. - Today I broke my personal record for sitting in line at the doctor! Almost seven hours in line. This is not counting the morning standing at the reception. I spent 2 hours and 15 minutes there. In general, a whole working day at the clinic. As a result, I found out that I have community-acquired pneumonia and I am still being treated, - said Ekaterina from Khabarovsk. She added that "no one was swabbed." At the same time, the townswoman shares her observations - people with covid are waiting in line with other patients for hours. - By the way, there, in the clinic, there are a dime a dozen coronavirus cases. They don't even hide, and they say: I had a positive analysis, I came for a referral to the second. At first I avoided such people, but when there were every third of them in the queue, it became clear that there was nowhere to go, - says Ekaterina. She clarified that several doctors quit the polyclinic to which she applies, and the rest “have to take up to 10 pm”. - It is not possible to call a doctor at home by phone, people go to the registry for an hour and stand together in one line, with those who have symptoms and they come and are recorded for CT, says the townswoman. She also added that "a CT scan 10 days ahead may be given at midnight." - The doctor who received me told me that she was also quitting from Monday. He says it has become impossible to work. In general, yesterday I plunged into all this and my hair stood on end, - the patient states. We will remind that earlier in the regional Ministry of Health decided to prohibit medical institutions from giving doctors leave.
