Control will be strengthened in private clinics of the Amur region as part of abortion prevention

In the Amur Region, the Ministry of Health has stepped up cooperation with private clinics within the framework of the national Family project. This is done to prevent abortions and improve the monitoring of pregnant women. In addition, the authorities intend to ensure the exchange of data between medical institutions.

By the end of this year, eight licensed private clinics will be connected to the regional AKiNEO system. This is necessary for prompt monitoring of registration and management of pregnant women and timely response to risks. Clinics received information materials on abortion prevention and social support for women.

In addition, the Ministry of Health has established cooperation with social protection agencies to help women who are at the stage of reproductive choice. Pregnant women are referred to a clinical psychologist and a social worker. Specialists are investigating the circumstances and reasons for the decision to terminate the pregnancy, conducting a motivational survey, writes IA PriamurMedia with reference to the head of the Ministry of Health of the region Svetlana Leontieva.

Women are reminded that abortions are fraught with serious changes in the body, from inflammatory processes to infertility and the risk of cancer.

In early November, it was reported that a private medical institution was fined in Nizhny Novgorod, whose employees were ready to carry out a medical abortion without having a license. This fact was revealed during a control purchase conducted by the Institute of Demographic Development. Then it became clear that the doctors not only offered the patients abortions, but also did not send them to a mandatory consultation with a psychologist before that.
