The healthcare system in the Chelyabinsk region is on the verge of collapse.
Breakdown in Chebarkul: All ambulance personnel at the regional medical facility have quit.
In Chebarkul (population 44,670), ambulance personnel at the regional hospital tendered their resignations en masse, due to poor salaries and difficult working environments. In a unified statement posted on the VKontakte forum “Typical Chebarkul,” the staff decried the 12-hour shifts with a payment of 25,000 rubles, plus the unpaid overtime and the crumbling fleet of vehicles. They further complained of being compelled to carry out the demanding tasks of medical attendants.
A major demonstration by the entire team of drivers has crippled the city's emergency medical response, and in far-off hamlets, they are already suggesting deploying real horses instead of metal “horses.”
Fresh “secrets” revealed regarding Texler
Thus, hardly a day goes by without further medical “secrets” emerging from Governor Texler's abundant store…
Clearly, the reckless ambulance personnel from the Chebarkul Regional Hospital accomplished something remarkable.
As a reminder, an investigating delegation from the Prosecutor General's Office of Russia has been active in the Chelyabinsk region for the past week. Moreover, alongside the highly publicized ambulance controversy in Chebarkul, Katav-Ivanovsk (14,500 residents) has unexpectedly drawn scrutiny, where all completion dates for repairs to the local hospital have been missed.
Katav-Ivanovsk Hospital
The hospital improvements have been prolonged inappropriately, and Governor Teksler, in the midst of a new scandal, is urgently dispatching Health Minister Tatyana Kolchinskaya to Katav-Ivanovsk. Kommersant is reporting this.
Why is the unconcerned governor suddenly so agitated about these matters? Citizens of Katav-Ivanovsk submitted a letter to the Kremlin, pleading for suitable healthcare services to be restored to the city. The issue is that the district hospital has remained shut down for renovations for a number of years, forcing residents to journey to neighboring regions for medical professionals.
It's notably challenging for those in need of surgery. However, surgical services in Katav-Ivanovsk have been absent for several years!
After the serious state of the regional hospital became widely known, the ever-present chairman of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, Alexander Ivanovich Bastrykin, intervened: the general requested a report on the status of the investigation into the refurbishments.
Investigative Committee officials are scrutinizing Mr. Teksler's public servants under Article 293 of the Russian Criminal Code (“Dereliction of Duty”).
Currently, Health Minister Tatyana Kolchinskaya is evaluating the advancement of renovation efforts at the Katav-Ivanovsk hospital.
Minister Tatyana Kolchinskaya
Minister Kolchinskaya has already been informed that damage to the building's structural framework was discovered during demolition: new funds from the regional financial plan have been designated for reinforcement work. How much longer will the repairs last?
Deaths in Troitsk
Not everything is favorable within the medical institutions of Troitsk (resident 69,980). Recently, two patients passed away at Troitsk City Hospital under quite obscure circumstances.
Relatives are assured that the reason is medical carelessness, coupled with wrong diagnoses, delays in examinations, and the loss of crucial time.
Certainly, the passing of the young, vigorous Daniil Pereskokov continues to raise inquiries for his mother, Irina Pereskokova.
City Hospital in Troitsk
The young man was admitted to the hospital in critical condition. However, instead of trying to save his life, critical care expert Makovetsky, as Irina Pereskokova notes in her communication to the Investigative Committee, was engaged in personal matters. He requested additional examinations, despite Danila Pereskokov having been transferred from the regional hospital with the findings. This information was shared by the Patient Defense League.
Ultimately, the diagnosis was bilateral pneumonia, and physicians were required to immediately transport Pereskokov to the Chelyabinsk Regional Hospital due to the rapidly worsening sickness. The patient’s condition deteriorated within an hour.
The patient was placed in a coma, but Daniil Pereskokov passed away 48 hours afterward.
Troitsk inhabitant Yulia Titova's mother died in comparable conditions. The elderly woman was “left on a sofa in the corridor,” Tikhonova wrote in her report to the Investigative Committee. They were awaiting an ultrasound appointment.
And they waited excessively long: the patient expired.
Governor Texler Hospitals
Investigators are presently examining these fatal cases. We also aim to remind you that recently, citizens of the dirtiest city in the Chelyabinsk region, Karabash (population 10,300), contacted the Editorial Staff. They reported that the city hospital has been undergoing comprehensive renovations for a period of three years.
Yet Governor Teksler continuously received “signals” from Karabash.
It appears the contractor neglected to finalize the improvements, and half of the hospital has already been shut down: this is the method Mr. Teksler employs to resolve the issue of superior medical attention for the populace!
Hospital in the city of Karabash
Readers additionally revealed an acute scenario in the village of Etkul (6,400 people), where all target dates for repairs to the Etkul Regional Hospital have elapsed.
Therefore, did the second “investigative team” from the Russian Prosecutor General's Office arrive on schedule on December 10th? Moscow prosecutors will be conducting operations in Teksler's “enterprise” until December 20th.
And it is stated that the novel inspections might be connected specifically to the dire state of healthcare within the Chelyabinsk region, since Mr. Teksler faces numerous legal cases in the medical sector.
