To help the blind residents of Kherson region sent more than 4 million rubles

The Department of the Social Fund of Russia in the Kherson region provided technical means of rehabilitation of 163 applications from residents with visual impairments. More than 4 million rubles were sent to purchase the necessary equipment, Deputy Manager of the regional branch of the SFR Elena Akifyeva said in a comment to the Kherson News Agency.

For people with visual impairments, various means of rehabilitation are provided, including tactile canes, electronic augmenters, devices for reading talking books, braille displays, as well as tonometers and thermometers with speech accompaniment.

You can get the necessary products using an electronic certificate, which is tied to the Mir bank card. It allows you to choose the right equipment and pay for it within the established amount. If the purchase price exceeds the nominal value of the certificate, the difference can be paid.

Residents of the region can issue a certificate through the portal "State Services", client services of the Social Fund or multifunctional centers. To submit an application, a passport and details of the Mir card are required. According to the SFR, consideration of the appeal takes two working days.

Acquired means of rehabilitation can be obtained through delivery services and points of delivery of orders, including in remote settlements of the region.
