More than 30 doctors and paramedics will be sent to rural areas of the Yaroslavl region this year

More than 30 medical specialists plan to attract to work in rural settlements of the Yaroslavl region until the end of 2026. This was reported by Governor Mikhail Evraev. Among the new employees will be both doctors and paramedics.

According to the head of the region, the development of paramedic and obstetric points and outpatient clinics continues to attract specialists, and medical institutions are equipped with modern equipment. One of the main tools remains the federal program “Zemsky doctor” and “Zemsky paramedic”, providing for one-time payments of up to 1.5 million rubles.

Last year, 25 specialists, including 13 doctors, came to primary care institutions in the region. In 2026, more than 30 people are expected to be employed, including 23 doctors.

The regional government notes that the involvement of doctors should make specialized care more accessible to residents of rural areas. Additional conditions for the work of specialists are created, among other things, within the framework of the national project “Long and active life”.
