In the Yelets Children's Hospital, a massage nurse Svetlana Lyulenkov was held for a well-deserved rest

At the Yelets Children's Hospital, a special day: the team spent a well-deserved rest on the massage nurse of the rehabilitation department Svetlana Egorovna Lyulenkova, who turned 70 years old. This was reported by the Minister of Health of the Lipetsk region Lilia Samoshina.

Svetlana Egorovna came to pediatrics when others choose adult medicine. Baby massage is patience, sensitive hands, the ability to distract, cheer and not let the baby be afraid. Over the years, hundreds of children passed through her hands: how many babies sat confidently for the first time, went, stretched their backs after a long treatment - it is impossible to count. Parents remember these hands and talk warmly about them, and for a healthcare professional, this is the best estimate.

Today, the whole team thanked the colleague for his dedication to the profession, kindness and skill, because Svetlana Egorovna gave the children the most valuable – attention and soul. The Minister of Health of the region wished her good health and many years.

For the Yelets Children’s Hospital, this is not just a wire for retirement, but a moment of recognition: behind the figures of reporting and medical procedures are people whose hands and patience help children take their first steps.

Baby massage is not a mechanical procedure: it is important to feel the child, find an approach to him, work in conjunction with parents. The departure of such a specialist is always a loss for the team, but also an occasion to say thank you for decades of work.
