On the eve of Social Worker Day, Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova visited the gerontology department of the Noginsky boarding house in Chernogolovka, Moscow Region.
“Today’s visit is connected with the fact that our colleagues, workers of the social service system, have a professional holiday. These are incredible people who give themselves to those who come to them with their difficult life situations. I sincerely want to thank all social workers of the country for this work, for the love for those people to whom they give themselves,” Tatyana Golikova congratulated the workers.
During the visit, the Deputy Prime Minister inspected the boarding house and talked to residents and staff. The institution has double occupancy, an assembly hall, a tea room, a library, and a physical therapy room.
“Today in the Moscow Region we are also getting acquainted with active longevity technologies, which, on the instructions of the head of state, we will implement from January 1, 2025, as part of the national project “Family”. I am sure that thanks to such technologies, the number of senior citizens will grow. We see that technologies allow us to nurse even the most seriously ill patients so that they return to life, to society and become active. Now we are working in two areas: to support the older generation and those people who need help, people with disabilities, people who suffered during a special military operation, and their families. We are actively developing a long-term care system. By 2030, on the instructions of the head of state, 500 thousand of our citizens should be covered by long-term care, now it is 174 thousand. Such social homes are also one of the areas. As part of our project, together with the regions, we will carry out major repairs of 43 such houses and build 55. The most important thing is that these are not the same nursing homes that were before. This is a completely new look for social homes, where people who come here find their family, and sometimes even get married,” the Deputy Prime Minister noted.
The department employs 35 people, and is home to 45 elderly and disabled people. They have daily classes – Nordic walking, fitness, drawing, beading, string art, decoupage, dancing, cooking, and also have their own choir. All residents undergo annual medical examinations.
In 2025, the boarding house took first place in the country as the best organization with the safest and most harmless working conditions.
In total, there are 36 state-run boarding houses in the Moscow region, where 7 thousand elderly citizens and disabled people live.
