February 3 – Farid Mukhametshin visited adult residential home in Bavly, the south-east of Tatarstan.
Two years ago members of the Tatarstan parliament took the republican residential social service institutions under their patronage. Parliamentarians became members of guardian boards of these institutions, actively participating in their life, assisting in purchase of home appliances, medical supplies and other necessary things.
Farid Mukhametshin talked with the residents of the home, asking about their living conditions. Seniors said that the staff always treated them with true consideration and care.
Later Farid Mukhametshin and Albert Khabibullin, head of the Bavly district, took part in the meeting of the board of guardians, which focused on ways of solving pressing issues facing the residential home. The staff of the residential home provides its residents with social, medical, psychological, legal and other services. It houses 76 people from Tatarstan districts, Kazan and Naberezhnye Chelny. They have 5 meals a day. The staff creates conditions for getting their patients involved in social activities.
The director of the Bavly home said that they needed to refurbish rooms for physiotherapy, to purchase rehabilitation equipment for disabled and to continue further improvements of the territory.
Farid Mukhametshin summarized by saying that the republican authorities have been lately paying close attention to seniors and disabled citizens as well as orphans. Representatives of charitable organizations, business and authorities get actively involved in the work of board of trustees and supervisory councils. He hold up the Bavly residential home as an example.
