CONSOLIDATED REPORT
isolation of violent inmates),
in which a window opening is
not provided.
In general, the situation
regarding
the
medical
support of the inmates of
the PTDC NSC RoK is in line
with national legislation and
international standards for
the treatment of prisoners. In
each PTDC NSC RoK there is a
medical ward, where medical
assistance is provided by
a paramedic. For example,
members of the NPM team
in Almaty and Almaty oblast
note that “the medical ward of
PTDC NSC RoK includes three
offices: reception, procedural
and
administrative.
The
equipment
of
a
premedical
office
complies
with the norms. If there
is a necessity to consult
specialists, the hospital or
clinic of the National Security
Committee is contacted.
In emergency cases of
medical care, a paramedic
using the institution car will
immediately take the patient
to the hospital of the National
Security Committee”. The
same practice in the field
of organizing medical care
is available in PTDC NSC
115
RoK in Astana and South
Kazakhstan.
According to the NPM
team members in SKO “a
paramedic at the time of
the visit did not have a
specialist
certificate
for
exercising medical activities”,
which is a serious violation
of the requirements of the
legislation of the Republic of
Kazakhstan.
None of the PTDC NSC
RK has created the proper
conditions for persons with
disabilities who are held in
detention there. To improve
the living conditions, social
and medical support for the
remand detainees held in the
PTDC NSC RK, it is necessary:
1) to equip the toilet areas
with sinks and toilets with
handrails for wheelchair
users, to ensure privacy
conditions; 2) to equip the
shower rooms with separate
places with flexible hoses and
stools for convicted persons
with disabilities; 3) to create
and install gently sloping
platforms for movement to
the walking yard, i.e. create
a barrier-free environment
for persons with disabilities
