At RSE “Establishment EC166/5” there were numerous
complaints about the lack
of timely treatment and
the poor quality of medical
services. Complaints about
the provision of medical
care were almost at all units
of the establishment. 22

medical staff on the fact that

and disability registration
without coordination with
the administration.
