Resumption of Private Medical Clinic and Dental Office Inspections in Bishkek
The Ministry of Health in Bishkek plans to resume raid inspections of private medical clinics and dental offices in the capital city. This decision comes after an offsite meeting held by Minister Alymkadyr Beishenaliev with employees of the Center for State Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance.
During the meeting, the participants discussed the increase in infectious diseases in Bishkek, including influenza, acute respiratory infections, viral hepatitis, measles, and other issues. As a result, it was proposed to resume raid inspections from January 15, 2024, to detect private medical clinics, centers, and dental offices operating without a license. The inspections will also focus on private kindergartens and schools to ensure compliance with sanitary and epidemiological standards and the availability of vaccination cards in accordance with the order of the Health Ministry. Additionally, public catering facilities will undergo inspections for the presence of health books and compliance with sanitary standards.
The press center of the Ministry of Health emphasized the importance of these inspections in maintaining public health and safety. This initiative aims to ensure that all medical and educational facilities, as well as public catering establishments, adhere to the necessary standards and regulations to protect the well-being of residents in Bishkek.
