Everywhere in this hromada one can see evidence of its stability and continuous development. In spite of the fact that the Nabutivska AH in the Korsun Rayon received many of the healthcare, educational, cultural facilities, the hromada manages not only to maintain them at the normal level, but repair, improve and modernise. In addition to renovations, new roads and street lighting, the Nabutivska AH is opening new facilities – three of them will be available this year. Participants of the press-tour organised by the Cherkasy Local Government Development Centre of the U-LEAD with Europe Programme learned about the powerful development of the Nabutivska hromada.

The AH is a union of 13 villages with 5 schools, 2 outpatient clinics, 7 rural health posts, 1 music school and 1 family-type orphanage, 7 houses of culture, 2 village clubs, 7 libraries.

The introduction of telemedicine is actively developing as well. The hromada purchases housing for invited new doctors. At the moment, Nabutiv is promptly renovating a new outpatient facility with the co-financing of the state, which will open doors for patients this year. Preparation for the ASC opening (supported by the U-LEAD with Europe Programme), that will provide 86 services (instead of only 11 currently available), is being completed.
