In the course of the visit, human rights workers talked with the senior management of the medical institution, discussed issues of organizing the provision of medical care, household, medical and sanitary support for patients.
Currently, the Hospital is one of the largest healthcare institutions in the Donetsk People’s Republic, providing the full range of specialized psychiatric care to the population of the Republic (advisory, outpatient, inpatient), as well as institutional advice to psychiatrists from other psychiatric hospitals.
The institution is equipped with everything necessary to provide full medical care to those in need. Also, the hospital in its structure has general psychiatric departments and republican highly specialized centres.
