The Minister of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, General of the Police of the Russian Federation Vladimir Kolokoltsev, visited the medical and sanitary unit of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). The medical unit, created in the late 1940s, is now a modern treatment and prevention center. The institution's structure includes a hospital with a clinic, a number of health centers located in the cities of Eldan, Lansk, Mirni and Naryongri, as well as first aid rooms, centers for psychophysiological diagnosis and sanitary-epidemiological surveillance. The director of the department was presented with the latest equipment, which allows specialists to apply advanced diagnostic and treatment methods. Doctors from more than 15 specialties conduct admissions to the medical unit. During the year, up to 400 thousand studies are performed in the clinical diagnostic laboratory. The most important activity of the medical service is prevention and early diagnosis of diseases. To perform preventive checks on personnel, ward doctors are also sent to hard-to-reach areas. During the last two years alone, medical and sanitary unit specialists made 25 business trips to the Far North. The minister spoke with staff and police officers who are undergoing examination and treatment here. During a meeting with the management of the medical institution, Vladimir Kolokoltsev emphasized the importance of high-quality and affordable medical care for Yakut police officers.
