“At two in the morning, my stomach grabbed my stomach, and only Ftalazole helps,” says Kirovchanka Maria Krasovskaya, who came to Ukhta to relatives. There was no desired medicine in the house. Then Maria Nikiforovna asked her sister to go to the pharmacy on duty. When in response I heard that there was no one, I was very surprised: «And we have, although the city is poorer than your».
According to the guest of Ukhta, once she thanked fate for the work of such an institution. Her 25-year-old son was greatly beaten on the street. “Ambulance” forbidden to call, he was tightly drunk, was afraid to lose a very good job. Rushed, but there is not even streptocide in the house. Thank God we live from the pharmacy not far, ”recalled M. Krasovskaya.
The deputy chief physician of the ambulance, Nikolai Malov, recalled cases when residents turn to the ambulance with a request for any necessary drug that absent house. For example, they ask analgesics, antipyretic. “They call not only at night, but on the weekend and holidays. But we have no right to sell or give drugs, ”he says.
According to Yuri Donichenko, director of the Ukhtafarma Municipal Institution, in the 80s, pharmacy No. 60 worked around the clock, but was not in demand by the Ukhtins and switched to the daily regime. The night shift was practiced in pharmacy No. 71. “We worked around the clock for only six months,” said Galina Sheeova, a former pharmacist of the pharmacy of the pharmacy.
“We will either open them, then close them, but practice has shown that it is unprofitable,” says Vyacheslav Bondarev, head of the health department of healthcare. — Previously, it was easier, but now the money is chronically lacking, we cannot afford such a liberty. Our budget is 52% of the estimated amount, we already stretch this “blanket” then and there, it is bursting there, then it breaks ”.
“Probably, such a pharmacy is needed by the city,” said Natalia Anisimova, director. But, according to Natalia Nikolaevna, the staff content of employees will be too costly just as her work is not beneficial. “The city is small, a little people. If the pain is acute — there is an ambulance. The necessary drugs for all occasions are not only on sale, but should also be in abundance in each house «.
“Most of the Ukhta pharmacies operate until 21:00, this is enough,” says Lidia Sadykova, head physician. -In addition, such a criminal situation reigns in the city at night that it is unlikely that anyone will dare to go to the pharmacy «.
The leadership of Ukhtafarmacia intends to make this year with a proposal to the opening of a pharmacy on duty at the base of the 97th near the Progress store. “If people are circulating, we would have something to go to the administration. But so far there have been no one, except in orally, and then from friends, ”says Yuri Donichenko.
According to him, during these plans, the personnel problem will exacerbate: “Today we work about 60% of the required number of specialists, half of which are pre-retirement age”. You will also need financial support from the budget: «If losses are covered for us, then there will be no problems».
