According to the press service of the ministry, the minister inspected the new building of the maternity hospital, which is designed for 50 beds. This four-story building, with a total area of 2,220 square meters, has already been constructed up to the third floor, where work on pouring the monolith is currently ongoing.
The project includes the placement of the reception and gynecology departments on the first floor, as well as offices for ultrasound diagnostics and colposcopy. The operating block and two delivery rooms will occupy the second floor, while the third floor will house the neonatal pathology department and the gynecology department with separate sanitary facilities. The issue of purchasing modern medical equipment is also under consideration.
In addition, Osmonov got acquainted with the work on creating a dormitory for medical staff.

Funding is provided by the Kemin District Development Fund, and the total cost of the work is about 18 million soms. The area of the new dormitory will be 1,450 square meters, which should significantly improve conditions for medical workers and help address the staffing shortage.

Currently, measures are being taken to improve working conditions and attract specialists, including through the construction of the dormitory.
