Dashoguz Girl Receives Successful Heart Surgery with Support from Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov Charitable Foundation Orient
The Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov Charitable Foundation for Assistance to Children in Need of Guardianship is setting an inspiring example of promoting humanitarian values among the youth in Turkmenistan.
Under the leadership of Hero-Arkadag, Turkmenistan is placing significant emphasis on the overall development, recovery, and health improvement of children and teenagers. A recent case that highlights this commitment is the successful treatment provided to 7-year-old Gulnar Rakhimbayeva from Dashoguz velayat. At the International Cardiology Center, doctors performed a heart surgery on Gulnar to correct a congenital heart defect known as an atrial septal defect. Thanks to the surgical intervention, Gulnar’s health significantly improved.
Currently, a group of young residents from Ashgabat is receiving rehabilitation treatment at the Maternal and Child Healthcare Center in Arkadag city and the Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov Rehabilitation Center.
A unique approach to treatment involves interaction with Akhal-Teke horses. This form of therapy includes caring for the horses, observing them, and engaging in various activities with them. This method has proven to have a therapeutic effect on children undergoing treatment, helping them to relax and heal. Hippotherapy, known since the time of Hippocrates, is beneficial in relieving nervous tension, fatigue, and nervous system disorders. It also boosts children’s self-esteem, bravery, work ethic, and respect for Turkmenistan’s cultural heritage.
The successful integration of hippotherapy alongside conventional rehabilitation techniques at the Children’s Health and Rehabilitation Center in Arkadag city is a result of medical recommendations and proposals from the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov. This demonstrates the government’s dedication to ensuring the complete recovery and well-being of children in need.
Through such initiatives, Turkmenistan is not only investing in the physical health of its young population but also instilling values of compassion, courage, and respect in the future generation.
