In the Khimmash area, the obstetric inpatient unit at 3 Dagestanskaya is slated to be closed for repairs. However, it may not reopen. The building itself is in a state of disrepair. The regional Ministry of Health’s press service confirmed that it is unsafe to be there. Patients will be sent to other maternity hospitals until the end of the year, reports portal 66.Ru. Staff at the center fear it will be closed for good. The fact is that since 2016 the number of women giving birth in the region has almost halved, so the region does not need that many maternity hospitals. According to the employees themselves, nurses and doctors will be transferred to the inpatient facility in Vtuzgorodok, while orderlies, storekeepers and cleaners will simply be laid off. The Ministry of Health, however, says that everyone will continue to work. Earlier we reported that near Yekaterinburg doctors had their salaries cut by 40%.
