It ended the summer, and the beginning of a new academic year. But not all children have passed through the system of health camps this summer, memories of the holidays will be joyful...
Civil campaign "Our House" drew attention to the poor conditions of summer rehabilitation of orphans and children left without parental care, in Vorša.
According to the "Our House", for a long time the children of this category is not sent to the camps and sanatoriums in general, despite the fact that they have the right to twice a year undergo rehabilitation at the expense of budget funds.
Adoptive parents and guardians have repeatedly appealed to the authorities of Vorša with a request to solve the problem. As a result, in summer 2012 the camp "Star" was organized in the framework of the tourist-recreational complex "Vorša". Children are placed in a wooden case with a small barrack-rooms and old furniture. Near the complex there was a night club "Baba Yaga", one of the most popular in Vorša.
In 2013, the children's camp organized in a different place – in the satellite town of Bołbasava. For these purposes, we used the building of the local school. In classrooms equipped bedrooms.
However, despite the fact that this time the camp chosen as the best brick building, conditions for placing children became better not. Next to the children's camp instead of a night club is a garage and a sawmill. On the floor of the school, which organized the camp housed a living area that felt the smell of urine.... Obviously, the animals tended impermanent. Specific smell of the camp was absent only in the days, officially intended to visit.
In the future, the local authorities have organized camps and in other schools and in children's boarding school in Vorša.
During one of the shifts in the camp on the basis of school children fell ill with head lice twice. According to the civil campaign "Our House", "camp guide associated with the legal representatives of children, trebovall take them home for treatment. And those who did not take home, "treated" in the camp... When the shift was over, the children were returned to foster care. With lice..."
According to Gennady Bolbatovsky, director of the National Center for Health Improvement and Sanatorium treatment population, the need to equip the children's camp on the basis of other institutions due to lack of country camps. However, residents of Vorša claim that such camps are half-empty.
