The Suleiman Palace hotel in Kazan will host 50
medical workers who work with coronavirus patients. Today, Kazan Mayor Ilsur
Metshin visited the hotel, talked with doctors accommodated there, and got
acquainted with the living conditions.
Currently, at the initiative of the owner of the
Suleiman Palace hotel, Suleiman Abunagimov, rooms are provided for
accommodation of 16 doctors free of charge. In total, the hotel is ready to

Doctors limit the possibility of infecting their
patients and colleagues
The chief doctor of the Republican Clinical Hospital, Kazan
city Duma deputy, Rafael Shavaliyev emphasized that the decision to temporarily
stay in a hotel, not at home, was made by the medical workers. “They work
around the clock, including with complicated patients. Their relatives, with
whom they usually live under the same roof, go out to the street, to the store.
Doctors are afraid to get infected from them and thus limit the possibility of
infecting their patients and colleagues,”- he explained.
“This is a very serious and responsible decision, we
welcome and support it. Now is a very important and responsible time. Medical
staff is facing with high demand and, we all have best hope them. Now the
professionalism of our doctors, their ability to cope with the situation, not
only with medicines, but also with words to support patients become
particularly important”, - the Mayor said.
All procedures
at the hospital entrances are organized as in operating rooms
R.Shavaliyev also said that doctors check the
temperature every day before the start of the working day, make an examination
of the throat. Everyone is provided with personal protective equipment.
“It is crucial to take care of yourself and others.
All our clinics, which have been selected for treating coronavirus patients by
the decision of the Tatarstan Ministry of Health, have a high state of
readiness. On the example of the RCH, I saw how professionally the flows are
divided, that all the necessary procedures are already organized at the
entrance to the hospital as in operating rooms: temperature measurement,
disinfection, and the use of personal protective equipment”, - I.Metshin said
in turn.
Suleiman Palace

the necessary conditions are created for them: standard double rooms and
catering.
I.Metshin noted that Suleiman Palace is currently the
first hotel in Kazan that provided 25 rooms for doctors free of charge.
Special thanks
to all concerned Kazan citizens
At the same time, the Mayor once again thanked the
responsible business of Kazan. “Special thanks to all concerned citizens of
Kazan. Despite the difficult situation for the hotel business, responsive
people work here. Besides, there are a lot of appeals from citizens with offers
of help. We have a large army of volunteers: among them, there are those who
took part in the Universiade, in the World Championships, as well as new
people. It is a great blessing and a great pride that such caring and
responsive citizens live and work in our city. We hope that this will help us to
