According to the draft, the Rehabilitation Center will be merged with the Republican Institution for Prosthetic and Orthopedic Products, leading to the creation of a single Republican Institution that will handle prosthetics and rehabilitation for people with disabilities under the auspices of the Ministry of Labor. This decision aims to simplify the structure of the public service.
Currently, there are 159 employees at the Republican Institution for Prosthetic and Orthopedic Products, while the Rehabilitation Center has 46.5 staff positions. After the merger, the total number of employees will be 201.5.
As part of the reorganization, it is planned to optimize the administrative and support positions at the Rehabilitation Center, which will affect roles such as director, chief accountant, head of maintenance, as well as electrician and plumber. However, specialized professionals and key areas of work will be retained.
Additionally, the project proposes the introduction of new leadership positions: first deputy director - chief engineer, deputy director for production and rehabilitation activities, as well as chief physician, who will be responsible for recovery and rehabilitation services, including the possibility of patient hospitalization.
