the Village of Kuzomen ‘ is on the Tersk coast of the White sea. From the regional center to 500 kilometers. By car the journey takes 7-10 hours. The first 200 kilometers on the Federal highway you can drive at speeds of 90 kilometers per hour. For the city of Kandalaksha need to roll with a comfortable highway here and the speed is sharply reduced. Bad asphalt goes into the ground. Blizzards and snow drifts in these parts even in may – a natural phenomenon. By the end of calendar spring primer blurs. Purple Sandstone track turns, keep your road to Kuzomen ‘ in the forest. Four kilometers before the village, the vegetation ends. The fact that Kuzomen ‘ is on a sandy Cape on the right is washed by the White sea, and on the left the river Varzuga. A few kilometers from the pine forest to the beach – solid sand. This is a polar desert. Beautifully and terribly.
the Machine sinking in the dunes in summer and winter. Therefore, on the edge of a forest area always spontaneous Parking. On snow crust covers the sand, people transport snowmobiles, and in another season will use all-terrain vehicles, “loaves” and “lawn”, which you can drive along the edge of the tide, where the sand is more dense.
lucky for Us, the day the road was clear. Blizzard began only in the evening, when we have met the locals.
Family Moshnikova – large. Anna and Dennis have five children: three girls and two boys – twins-two-year-old.
– the Average daughter, I had a home birth. Did not have time to travel from the village to the doctors, and the doctors were unable to me, – says Anna. – Everything was OK. We are alive and healthy. But it was terrible, of course. Though we live in the village, but the birth make they themselves do not know how. When I got pregnant the fourth time and found out I was having twins, I realized that many risks, and two months before childbirth moved to Murmansk. Fortunately there are relatives, sheltered. My husband and children helped at home grandmother.
families in the village three. Just Kuzomen lives of 13 children. What is the health visitor, the local women don’t know. To their children nobody comes. Vaccinations are late and only to those who can get to the district center, complaining mother.
Children for almost two years, and they have still not vaccinated, you need to do in the year. In Umba say: come! But it’s not just difficult, but almost impossible – with five children round-trip of 300 kilometers on the road for a checkup. And why we have to go? – outraged Moshnikov Anna.
Anna works at a local shop as the seller. The subscription list with a petition to the Governor on the construction of FAP lies at the cash register. It is more than a hundred signatures. Painted not only those who live in Kuzomen all year round, but summer visitors who come here for the summer.
“every year the number of new homes increases. The village is slowly coming back, the youth of the cities, children are born, prithet a lot of tourists”, – the statement says.
In the season of fishing, hunting and tourism situations when you need medical care, occur regularly. But often you have only the car kit.
a Few years ago at a local club drunk stranger almost point-blank shot into a guy with a gun. Then to the wounded man flew air ambulance. The helicopter he was taken to the hospital and saved. But not everyone is so lucky, ascertain Mazomanie and tell you how last winter called an ambulance a young man. Brigade ambulance arrived at the edge of the forest almost five hours and were unable to travel to the village. Local was carrying a patient on a snowmobile to the medical car. The man survived.
Theoretically, the Medicaid Kuzomen should provide the paramedic the village of Varzuga. According to the Ministry of health of the Murmansk region, there Fapu attached 93 of Kutamani: 80 adults and 13 minors.
Varzuga is located 30 kilometers from the sandy Cape. It would seem that close. But between the villages of Sands, forest, and a dirt track. In bad weather, impassable terrain.
– Everything that makes the nurse, it will give you advice on the phone and maybe someone medications from the pharmacy to send, of course, at our expense, – says Anna Moshnikov.
the Woman recalls how in January, got sick from all five of her children. Called the paramedic. A medic from Varzuga arrived only on the fifth day.
From 1957 to 1974 Kuzomen ‘ was considered the administrative center of Tersky coast. Here was one of the richest fishing farms. Then in the village had a hospital that not only treated but and operated. In the 90 years the farm fell into decay, the population left, the hospital was closed. In Kuzomen left just FAP.
– FAPs worked until 2012, but the building and office accommodation was an emergency, so the nurse quit and the clinic was closed. To eliminate the FAP was only possible after the public hearing. However, the issue resolved at the regional level without taking into account the views of residents, – says a local resident Olga Moshnikov, which in 2014 is in correspondence with the authorities.
Olga a stack of responses from the decision makers in departments. Of them it is clear that the new FAP promised to build in 2016 under the programme for the development of agriculture. However, until now, nothing has changed. As explained in the regional Ministry of health, the official rules inpatient clinic relies settlements with a population of from one hundred people. Kuzomen lacks only seven.
– we Have violated the time limits of the expectations of medical care, the failure of which is a direct violation of citizens ‘ rights. In the order of the Ministry of health of Russia from 2012 reads: “In the far North and equivalent areas with heavy toklimaticheskimi conditions, with long seasonal isolation, as well as in areas with low population density areas can be formed with a smaller population, with preservation of positions”, – quotes the document Olga Moshnikov. – FAP we have must be built for a long time.
the Ministry of health do not see what is happening in clear violation of the rights Kuzomen. According to the official response to our request, the Deputy Minister Alexandra Budovou, paramedic Kandalaksha district hospital is now in compliance with the schedule of visits to Kuzomen’. In addition, the village comes mobile medikit. Two times a year.
with regard to first-aid station, its construction in Kuzomen “law is not provided”. However, in the draft program of modernization of primary care it appears – modular first-aid station cost 15 million rubles can be here in 2024.
But local residents do not hurry to rejoice. First, they remember how they promised the clinic in 2016. second, in which case a heart attack four years will not lay.
In 2019, the village has created the so-called house economy. Local resident Olga Dinina trained at the district hospital – attended 60 hours on how to provide first aid.
My objective is to try to examine the person and help him to formulate the problem, because many are lost and can’t really explain what is wrong with them. Then to call an ambulance, says Irina Dinina. – In the courses we studied eight men to every village, was someone with whom the doctors can be contacted to clarify the situation. Still gave out of the box, in which were tyre, gloves, mask and thermal blanket. But I didn’t.
House economy will not be issued documents, and participation in such a coordination of doctors and residents otdalenno only voluntary. Irina has no right to do injections, give or recommend drugs. Replace paramedic she can’t.
