From November 9 to November 15, 2026, Russia is holding a Week of Diabetes Awareness. It is timed to coincide with World Diabetes Day, which is observed on November 14. World Diabetes Day was established in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization in response to the threat of the growing incidence of diabetes worldwide. The date — November 14 — was chosen to commemorate the contributions of the physician F. Banting. The relevance of the issue is due to the widespread nature of diabetes. The medical staff at the “Krasivo” sanatorium are joining the information campaign and conducting talks, seminars, and lectures, as well as distributing posters, flyers, and brochures on this important topic. The goal of World Diabetes Day is to raise awareness about diabetes — not only about the number of people affected by diabetes, but also about how the development of this disease can be prevented in many cases. Today, diabetes ranks fourth among the causes of premature death. Every 10-15 years, the total number of patients doubles. To keep the disease under control and live a full life, it is necessary to follow the rules of a healthy lifestyle.

Avoid being overweight and engage in physical exercise.

Give up smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.

Regularly monitor blood glucose levels, blood pressure, and total cholesterol, and undergo a full medical examination and preventive health check‑up at least once a year, as well as avoid stress and follow a diet. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. May your health be strong, and your life be bright and fulfilling!

   In 2026, Stroke Awareness Week will take place from October 26 to November 1. It is приурочена to World Stroke Day, which is observed on October 29. This year, World Stroke Day is being held under the motto: “Every minute counts.” The campaign calls on everyone to join global efforts to recognize symptoms early and seek timely medical help. The medical staff of the “Krasivo” sanatorium are joining the information campaign – they are conducting lectures, discussions, and organizing screenings of popular science and documentary films on a relevant topic.

  The events dedicated to World Stroke Day are aimed at raising public awareness about the problem of stroke, knowledge of the signs of stroke, and the procedure for taking independent action and the actions of those around a person, as well as at emphasizing the importance of providing proper and timely first aid, the need to undergo timely medical check‑ups and preventive medical examinations, and the need to correct risk factors and monitor physiological parameters.

    In 2025, World Stroke Day will be held under the motto: “Raising awareness and stepping up efforts to prevent stroke.” Raising awareness about stroke, its risk factors, and the importance of timely intervention helps people recognize the signs of stroke and take prompt action. Prevention advocacy encourages people to take control of their health by leading a healthy lifestyle, giving up bad habits, finding a hobby, going for walks, and eating a healthy diet — all of which will significantly reduce the risk of stroke. Support for people who have experienced a stroke and rehabilitation measures can help them return to a normal life. Take care of yourself and your loved ones! Knowledge, prevention, and timely action are our main allies in the fight against stroke.

Today, Dr. F.D. Kisilenko Viktoria Alexandrovna celebrates her birthday!

 Viktoria Alexandrovna, your work is a subtle art of reading between the lines. For you, an ECG is like a line from a heartfelt letter, and a Holter monitor is like an entire diary of someone’s life. You translate the language of the body into a precise and understandable language, and, most importantly, you do it in a timely manner.

On behalf of the entire team at the “Krasivo” sanatorium, we wish you a personal life that sounds free of interference and artifacts. May every day be like a perfect cardiogram — smooth, clear, with beautiful peaks of joy. Health that will never force you to turn to your colleagues, warm people by your side, and reasons to smile more often.

  Happy Birthday! 

 With great respect and love,

the staff of the “Krasivo” sanatorium

At the initiative of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, from October 19 to 25, 2026, the “Week of Awareness about the Importance of Medical Check‑ups and Preventive Examinations” is being held. Medical staff at the “Krasivo” sanatorium are joining this important information campaign and holding conversations and lectures with the guests on the topic.

Holding a thematic week dedicated to raising awareness among the population about the importance of medical check‑ups and preventive examinations helps to draw attention to the issues of disease prevention and early detection of health risks. Why are medical check‑ups and preventive examinations important?

Regular preventive measures help identify health problems at early stages, when treatment is most effective.

What is useful for everyone to do during Awareness Week?

• Sign up for a free medical check‑up or preventive examination.

• Familiarize yourself with the information about the procedure for undergoing a medical check‑up, preventive examinations, and the required documents.

• Learn more about disease risk factors and measures to prevent them.

• Talk to loved ones about the importance of regular medical examinations.

The Ministry of Health urges all Russians to actively take advantage of the opportunities offered by medical check‑ups and to take care of their health! Remember! Prevention is the key to longevity and good well‑being. Don’t put off visiting a doctor! Take care of yourself!

From October 12 to 18, 2026, Russia is holding a preventive Week of Breast Cancer Awareness (in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month). The medical staff at the “Krasivo” sanatorium are joining this important campaign and are holding talks, seminars, and meetings with the guests. Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common oncological diseases not only in Russia but throughout the world. It is a serious disease in which pathological cells in the breast tissue begin to divide uncontrollably and form a tumor. The earliest form (the so‑called “in situ” cancer) is not life‑threatening. However, tumor cells can spread to the adjacent breast tissue (invasion). As the tumor continues to grow, a mass or lump appears. Invasive cancer can spread to nearby lymph nodes or other organs (metastasize). Metastasis can lead to a fatal outcome.

Various forms of breast tumors (and there are over 20 types) can occur in half of the female population (i.e., in every second woman over 30 years of age). Fortunately, the vast majority are benign and do not threaten health.

Breast cancer prevention should be mandatory for all women. This includes maintaining a healthy lifestyle, eating a proper and balanced diet, preventing stress and conflict situations, giving up bad habits, following a daily routine, undergoing preventive examinations, and undergoing regular medical check‑ups. Take care of yourself and your loved ones! Stay healthy!

From October 5 to 11, Mental Health Week is taking place (in honor of World Mental Health Day on October 10). The medical staff at the “Krasivo” sanatorium are joining the campaign and have prepared brochures, leaflets, talks, films, and seminars on the topic. Mental health is an important component of human health. The human body is largely under the control of the nervous system, so mental state affects the functioning of each of the functional systems. Mental health is the foundation of a person’s well‑being and the effective functioning of society. The main rules for maintaining a healthy body and mind:

• Sports and proper nutrition. A balanced diet and moderate physical activity are the key to strong blood vessels, a healthy nervous system, and a strong immune system.

• Deep sleep for at least 7-8 hours. Sleep promotes rapid recovery of the body and, consequently, greater resilience to stressful situations.

• A hobby or pastime that you enjoy. It has been repeatedly proven that engaging in a favorite activity causes the body to release the “joy hormone”.

• Interaction with interesting and positive people. A positive-minded person energizes those around them with good, high-quality energy, nourishing both themselves and others..

• The ability and opportunity to express oneself.

Take care of yourself and your mental health, because it depends only on you!

Andrei Nikolaevich, happy birthday!

Your profession is unique. You are the person who knows how to hear what the heart is saying — in the literal sense. Every ultrasound of the heart and blood vessels under your hands is not just an image on the screen, but a story that the body tells about itself. And you know how to read it like no one else: precisely, subtly, with attention to every detail. Thanks to you, other doctors get the key to the right treatment, and our patients get understanding and peace of mind about their health.

They say a good diagnostician is like a scout who goes ahead of the army. Well, for the “Krasivo” sanatorium, you are that very reliable guide who is the first to see the essence and helps others stay on the right path.

On behalf of the entire team, we wish you good health — the very kind you so carefully help our guests maintain. May your own pulse always be steady, your blood pressure within the normal range, your blood vessels clear, and your heart beat only with joy and excitement, for which there is reason. Warmth in the home, strength in work, and people around you who appreciate you not only as a doctor, but also as a person.

With great respect and love, the staff of the “Krasivo” sanatorium

From September 28 to October 4, 2026, the Week of Responsible Heart Care will be held (in honor of World Heart Day on September 29). World Heart Day is held under the motto “Heart – for Life!” The main goal is to raise public awareness about the dangers of heart disease and preventive measures to prevent it and reduce mortality. The heart is the most important organ in the human body. The health and life expectancy directly depend on the condition of the cardiovascular system. It is necessary to take care of the heart from a young age. It is necessary to maintain moderate physical activity for at least 150 minutes per week, eat a balanced diet, and monitor blood pressure, heart rhythm, and lipid profile.

 To prevent cardiovascular diseases, it is necessary to adopt a rational approach to your lifestyle:

• it is important to maintain a high level of physical activity;

• to follow a proper daily routine and diet;

• not to overindulge in fatty, fried, or heavy foods, especially at night;

• to maintain a healthy body weight and give up bad habits.

Regular consumption of alcoholic beverages leads to impaired functioning of the heart muscle. Nicotine changes the condition of the vascular wall. Therefore, it is important to give up bad habits. Heart health is in your hands. The heart is given to us for life! Try to help your heart every day, and it will be grateful to you!

The week from September 21 to 27, 2026, has been declared by the Russian Ministry of Health as a week dedicated to preserving lung health. In our time, an inattentive attitude towards one’s health is becoming increasingly common, which can have serious consequences. One common example of such inattention is the improper treatment or lack of treatment for colds and bronchitis, which can lead to the development of serious complications, such as pneumonia. Colds and bronchitis are often accompanied by coughing, runny nose, sore throat, and general malaise. In most cases, these diseases are viral and do not require antibiotics on their own.

However, if treatment is incorrect or not provided, the inflammation can spread to the lungs, causing pneumonia or other serious diseases. Complications in the form of lung inflammation can lead to severe coughing, significant weakness, shortness of breath, fever, and other symptoms that require serious treatment. To avoid complications, it is important to take your health more seriously and attentively, monitor the symptoms of diseases, and not neglect proper medical consultation when necessary.

Regular medical examinations and preventive measures can also help prevent serious diseases and the complications associated with them. Take care of your lung health!

The week from September 14 to 20, 2026, has been declared Patient Safety Week and a campaign to promote health centers (in connection with World Patient Safety Day, which is observed on September 17). The medical staff of the “Krasivo” sanatorium are joining this important initiative.

Patient safety is a key aspect of quality medical care. Any form or type of medical care carries potential risks for patients. The patient’s active role plays an important part in ensuring their own safety when receiving medical care. Timely seeking of consultation, providing complete and accurate information about one’s health, and not being afraid to ask the doctor any questions that interest you regarding the diagnosis, treatment plan, and possible risks — all of this contributes to improving the quality of medical care. It should be remembered that maintaining a healthy lifestyle significantly improves health and increases the chances of recovery.

Health centers actively participate in promoting a healthy lifestyle among the population, raising citizens’ awareness of methods for maintaining and improving health, fostering a healthy outlook on life, instilling respect for health and quality of life, and helping to develop motivation to give up harmful habits such as smoking and drinking alcohol, as well as to minimize the impact of other risk factors for non‑communicable diseases.
