The Center’s Importance for the District and Its Residents
The authors of the relevant petition, which has already been registered on the Kyiv City Council website, emphasize that this center is the only multidisciplinary medical facility in the Darnytsia District where children can quickly and comprehensively undergo examinations in one place. This is particularly important for the young residents of the area, as highly qualified specialists work here, seeing hundreds of children from across the district every day. For many families, especially those with young children, this hospital is the most accessible alternative to expensive private clinics.
“The closure or reduction of this facility’s operations will create excessive pressure on other medical institutions, complicate access to examinations for children from low-income families, and deprive the district of the only systematic center for diagnosing childhood diseases.”
Consequences of Possible Closure
Residents emphasize that the closure of the center will lead to serious problems in accessing medical services for children, especially for families with low incomes. They urge the city authorities to consider the importance of preserving this institution to ensure quality and accessible medical care for the young residents of Kyiv.
