Parents of children with limited health capabilities face the necessity of sending their children to other regions to receive the necessary assistance. Despite the fact that the issue of creating a center has been discussed in the city hall for two years, a solution has still not been found. At the last session of the city council, this problem was raised again, where parents expressed their concerns about the financial costs of registration in private institutions.
According to city officials, the lack of land plots or funds for the construction of a rehabilitation center is not an issue.
“In our city, there is only one private speech therapist, while there is no state rehabilitation center. This situation is not new — we have been working on its resolution for two years. A plot has been allocated, and funds are also available. As soon as we resolve the staffing issues, we will begin construction and put the facility into operation. It is necessary to establish contact with the Ministry to attract specialists and form a staff. Once this issue is resolved, we can start construction,” said Deputy Mayor Ilyaz Babaev.
Currently, there are 293 children with limited health capabilities living in Kyzyl-Kiya.
