ArmInfo. The Office of the Ombudsman of the Republic of Armenia intends to send part of the materials related to violations revealed in the Hans Christian Kofoed Charitable Foundation to the homeless. According to the press service of the human rights defender, this is particularly true of the fact that winter socks assumed for the needs of the army were found in the shelter.
Recall that violations were identified during an unplanned visit by the office of the Ombudsman. In particular, it turned out that persons with disabilities living in the shelter give part of their pension to the shelter staff "<for maintenance or additional attention in their institution>. Both the building itself and the bathrooms and toilets are not adapted to the needs of people with disabilities.
The inhabitants of the shelter are not provided with sufficient personal hygiene products; there is no single procedure for collecting, storing and maintaining health data; the proper disposal of medical waste in the manner prescribed by law is not ensured. In addition, expired foods were identified, including yogurt, sweets, and peach jam. The opportunity to take a shower is provided once a week, with a maximum of 20 minutes allocated to one person, after which the hot water is either turned off or the person is forcibly taken out of the bathroom.
