In Vinnytsia region, the maternity ward was renovated in the hospital

In the maternity ward of the Tulchyn Hospital in Vinnytsia region, for the first time in more than 30 years, a major renovation was carried out, UNN reports.

Details

Thanks to the social initiative competition "Time to Act, Ukraine!" from the Charitable Foundation "MHP-Hromadi" and co-financing of the community, it was possible to renovate the premises, improve conditions for mothers and make the institution more inclusive.

We installed new furniture, replaced tiles, improved lighting, and widened doorways. We also combined the delivery and examination rooms, which allowed us to create comfortable conditions for family and partner births.

The "Happy Fate 3. Birth" project involved the renovation of the delivery room and examination room. The total budget exceeded 500,000 hryvnias, which were allocated by the MHP-Hromadi Foundation, the Life and Development NGO, the Vapnyarska and Tulchyn communities, and the maternity hospital itself.

This is the hospital's third successful project in partnership with the MHP-Hromadi Foundation. Previously, as part of the "Happy Fate" initiative, the discharge wards were renovated and modern wards for mothers were equipped, adding new furniture, household appliances and separate bathrooms.

In the future, we plan to renovate the intensive care unit for newborns and repair several more wards for accommodation. So far, there are enough renovated premises, but we hope that the birth rate will increase

It should be added that during the entire period of the "Time to Act, Ukraine!" competition, the MHP-Hromadi Charitable Foundation provided more than UAH 42 million in funding, supported 552 social initiatives that benefited more than 3.2 million people.
