📋 Tender Overview
A meeting was held at the Grodno Regional Executive Committee on the functioning of social boarding houses.It was conducted by the chairman of the regional executive committee, Yuri Karaev.Today in the region there are 12 social boarding houses with more than 2 thousand beds, as well as 14 round-the-clock departments for elderly citizens and disabled people with 414 beds.
Our state is social, and caring for the elderly is our duty, the foundation on which society rests.A person who has worked all his life for the good of the country, raised children and grandchildren, should not be left alone with his difficulties in old age.None of our older people should feel lonely or forgotten - this is a principled position.All necessary infrastructure will be created for this.This is not a job for a year or two - this is a constant, systematic care of the state for those who need it, Yuri Karaev emphasized.
The meeting participants discussed issues of care for the elderly, as well as the topic of reconstruction of existing facilities.Over the next 5 years, 18 social boarding houses and 13 social service centers will be built and reconstructed throughout Belarus.
At the same time, a characteristic feature of the Grodno region was also noted: here children strive to take care of their elderly parents themselves.But this does not eliminate the need to develop a system of boarding houses in the region and improve the quality of their work.In addition, a proposal was made to study the experience of public-private partnerships.
