To care for people with more serious illnesses who do not have a roof over their heads, we’re opening a charity medical clinic in St. Petersburg, where we are ready to lend a helping hand to everyone.
To care for people with more serious illnesses who do not have a roof over their heads, we’re opening a charity medical clinic in St. Petersburg, where we are ready to lend a helping hand to everyone.
Why we’re doing this
We want to give our patients in distress a full medical check-up because the conditions they find themselves in aggravate chronic diseases and cause new ones. But unfortunately, professional medical care is not available to them due to a lack of documents or money, and these people end up left alone with diseases that can be cured or prevented.
Moreover, having a clinic will allow us to obtain a medical license. It will allow us to collaborate with state hospitals and clinics on common medical programs, as well as propose legislative changes to improve access to medical care for our patients in distress.
What will we build
Our clinic will be in St. Petersburg, near the Narvskaya subway station. There will be three main rooms for medical procedures, administrative, and service rooms.
There will be a family doctor, a therapist, and a traumatologist, it will be possible to perform ultrasound, ECG, and simple diagnostic tests, and two nurses will assist in the work. Specialists and our colleagues from the leading medical clinics of the city will be invited for consultations. We will be able to admit 50 patients a day.
We believe that in the 21st century, medicine should be accessible to everyone, regardless of the situation in which people find themselves.
