THE PROBLEMS OF ORGANIZING MEDICAL AND SANITARY SERVICE IN PEASANT SETTLEMENTS IN THE STEPPE REGION (EARLY 1900s)
Abstract
After the abolition of serfdom, there was a massive migration of peasants to the Urals and to Siberia, including the national outskirts, in particular the Steppe Territory. The state actively supported the resettlement movement, created medical centers to provide assistance not only during the resettlement, but also in places where peasants settled. However, despite all attempts to organize high-quality medical care, officials faced a number of difficulties and problems. First, the state of the resettlements themselves. Dampness, dirt, lack of varied food and clean water became one of the conditions for the spread of infectious diseases among the new settlers. Secondly, there was no clear division between the functions of the doctors of the resettlement organization providing medical assistance to the migrants and the rural medical staff helping the old-timers, which led to an increase in the burden on the medical workers of both structures. Thirdly, in the villages there were no buildings suitable for hospitals, which became the reason for the refusal of inpatient treatment when a patient applied for medical help.
