1.1.3.2.5. Ekaterina Mikhailovna(August 19 (31), 1810 or 1811, St. Petersburg - 1894, Kozitsino village, Novotorzhsky district, Tver province) - one of the outstanding sisters of mercy of the Red Cross, who worked under the leadership of N. I. Pirogov in Sevastopol in 1855 - 56 and then into the war of 1877-78 in the Caucasus. She set up an extensive outpatient clinic for peasants in her Novotorzhsky district, on the Kozitsyn estate, even before the introduction of zemstvo institutions, and then was elected by the zemstvo assembly as trustee of all the hospitals and emergency rooms of the Novotorzhsky district

Portrait of Ekaterina Mikhailovna Bakunina

The great surgeon Nikolai Ivanovich Pirogov, speaking about his undeniable contribution to world history Russian sisters of mercy, Ekaterina Bakunina was rightly considered to be the most outstanding among them.

Ekaterina Mikhailovna was born in 1810 into the family of a nobleman (1764-1847), who was the governor of St. Petersburg and a senator.

E. M. Bakunina accounted for cousin famous anarchist Mikhail Bakunin and granddaughter I. L. Golenishchev-Kutuzov.

E. M. Bakunina received an excellent, comprehensive education. In her youth, she was a big arguer and a bully, from whom, as Stankevich put it, it was not easy to get rid of. In her memoirs, Bakunina writes that in her youth she was more of a “muslin young lady”: she studied music, dancing, drawing, loved sea swimming in the Crimea, and home balls, where she danced with pleasure. I had never listened to lectures on natural sciences before or gone to anatomical theaters.

By the time the Crimean War began, Ekaterina Mikhailovna was a respectable society lady of forty years old. She was among the first volunteers to immediately go to the front. But getting there turned out to be difficult. Relatives did not even want to hear about her intentions. Written requests to the Grand Duchess's office for enrollment in the community remained unanswered. And yet, thanks to perseverance, Ekaterina Mikhailovna achieved her goal. In the Holy Cross community she passed the initial medical training. When doctors taught her the basics of medicine in St. Petersburg, she, afraid of catching a cold in the cold climate in winter, went to the hospital for classes in a carriage, which caused ridicule from the surgeons. But cousin, Officer Alexander, who knew her character and will better, told her about the Crimea, about the accumulations of the wounded and typhus, said: “After all, I know you, now you want to go there even more.” Then, wanting to test herself, she began to visit the “most vile” of Moscow hospitals every day.

On January 21, 1855, Bakunina, among the sisters of the Holy Cross community, began work at the theater of military operations in the barracks of besieged Sevastopol, where blood flowed like a river. Nikolai Ivanovich Pirogov in his memoirs writes with admiration and respect not only about selflessness and rare hard work, but also about the courage and fearlessness of sister Catherine.

Pirogov recalled: “Every day and night one could find her in the operating room, assisting during operations, while bombs and missiles were falling all around. She displayed a presence of mind hardly compatible with female nature.” The sisters were also inspired by the fact that the front-line authorities valued their help, equating it with a feat. Pirogov himself, as well as Vice Admiral P.S. Nakhimov and the generals who visited the hospitals, considered them irreplaceable assistants. “One cannot help but marvel at their diligence in caring for the sick and their truly stoic selflessness,” said many who saw their work.

During almost the entire defense of Sevastopol, Ekaterina Mikhailovna, together with N.I. Pirogov was in the most responsible and at the same time the most dangerous area - the main dressing station of the city, which was located in the building of the Noble Assembly. Pirogov wrote in letters from Sevastopol:

“Kneeling in puddles in front of the sick, our women gave all possible help that they themselves needed<…>. And so they worked day and night. On damp nights, these women were still on duty, and, despite their fatigue, they did not fall asleep for a minute, and all this under tents that were soaking wet. And the women endured all such superhuman efforts without the slightest murmur, with calm selflessness and humility. Bakunina immediately devoted herself entirely to serving the sick with passion and carried out this service with complete dedication. She became an example of patience and tireless work for all the sisters of the community.”

Later they will write about her like this:

“Her appearance will flash so brightly, visibly, tangibly that it is simply impossible not to see her through our present into that runaway past. Her, energetic, fiery, with sparkling eyes and speeches, in simple peasant boots, briskly walking through the impassable mud, when she fought with careless non-commissioned officers and drunken caretakers for her transport with the sick and wounded.”

On behalf of Pirogov, Ekaterina Mikhailovna at the end of 1855 headed a new department of nurses for transporting the wounded to Perekop. Later she received an offer to lead the Holy Cross community. The great surgeon writes to her in a letter: “Do not make excuses or object, modesty is inappropriate here... I guarantee you, you are now necessary for the community as an abbess. You know its meaning, the sisters, the course of affairs, you have good intentions and energy... This is not the time to talk too much - act!” Bakunina remained in this post until 1860. She traveled to all military hospitals in Crimea and “became an example of patience and tireless work for all the sisters of the Community.”

N. I. Pirogov

“The community is not just a meeting of nurses,” Pirogov emphasized, “but a future means of moral control of the hospital administration.” Only sisters of the independent Holy Cross community were hired for the positions of hospital servants, as well as for the management of warehouses.

One of the brightest representatives of such “moral control” was Ekaterina Mikhailovna Bakunina.

The careers of sisters of mercy are determined by the opinions of the wounded, local community leaders, Nikolai Ivanovich Pirogov and Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna about them. And with their power, the hospital officials could neither reward nor demote them. The officials could not interest the sisters in “sharing”: their position was firm. This position was expressed by Ekaterina Mikhailovna. She said this about her main goal: “I had to resist with all my means and with all my skill the evil that various officials, suppliers, etc. inflicted on our sufferers in hospitals; and I considered and consider it my sacred duty to fight and resist this.”

N.I. Pirogov among the sisters of mercy of the Holy Cross community, 1855
(from the book by A.V. Voropai. N.I. Pirogov and the Red Cross Movement. M., 1985)

That is why Nikolai Ivanovich instructed the sisters to distribute cash benefits. The honesty of Bakunina and other sisters was also appreciated by the wounded themselves. “Do you remember me, Katerina Mikhailovna? - sometimes a soldier passing by with a detachment would joyfully shout and wave his hand at her, “it’s me, Lukyan Chepchukh!” You had my seven rubles at the Nikolaevskaya battery, and you already sent them from Belbek to the Northern camp.”

And here is an example of her personal courage: due to the intensified shelling of Sevastopol, it was decided to transfer all the wounded from the building of the Noble Assembly to the casemated premises of the Nikolaev Battery. An eyewitness reported: “I cannot help but mention here the high deed of one of the comforters of our poor sufferers: while running around in the Assembly of the Nobles, the sister of the Holy Cross community Bakunina announced that she gives her word to leave the house no earlier than the minute when there is not a single sick person left in it , and not only kept this word, but she herself accompanied those transported to the Count’s pier several times to help in placing them on the longboats, and, thanking God, she remained unharmed and managed to safely move to the Nikolaev fortification. The woman showed an example of selflessness and courage, rare even in men.”

On August 27, 1855, a general assault on Sevastopol began. Malakhov Kurgan was taken, and in the evening Russian troops crossed the floating bridge to the North Side. Bakunina was the last of the sisters to leave the city. Praskovya Mikhailovna Bakunina, knowing nothing about her sister’s fate and being in great anxiety, wrote a poem with the following lines:

You at every moment of day and night
In my soul, in my dreams!
I fix my eyes on the invisible land,
I don’t live here, but in those places
Where are you in the field of suffering?
I pray, suffering and loving,
But in the heart of sad hope:
Lord's cross keeps you!

After Ekaterina Mikhailovna returned from Sevastopol, the poet Fyodor Nikolaevich Glinka presented her with a poem that expressed the admiration and admiration for the moral feat of this woman that then reigned in society.

At the end of the war, Ekaterina Mikhailovna Bakunina, as the abbess of the Holy Cross community, comes to St. Petersburg, where she is engaged in the internal structure of the young community: training and educating new sisters, organizing nursing in peacetime. Through her care, community branches were opened in military hospitals in St. Petersburg, as well as in the Kronstadt Naval Hospital.

In 1859, Ekaterina Mikhailovna went to Germany and France to study the experience of foreign communities of nurses. She returned disappointed. In her memoirs she would later write: “The neatness and cleanliness in everything are excellent. But I remember that the cold definitely blew over me.<…>... these are not the sisters we dreamed of - sisters who are comforters of the sick, intercessors for them, sisters who bring warm feelings of love and participation, truth and integrity into other people's hospitals!

Having realized that it is no longer possible to be the head of the Exaltation of the Cross community due to disagreements with Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna, who wants to organize the community according to that Western Protestant-Catholic type, with its formal fulfillment of responsibilities for caring for the sick, she regretfully leaves the community, which has become the work of her life, leaves Petersburg and switches to another area of ​​activity - caring for the health of peasants.

In the summer of 1860, Ekaterina Mikhailovna, with a “broken heart,” left the community and went to the village. In the village of Kozitsino, Novotorzhsky district, Tver province, far from the bustle of the capital, a new, no less bright stage of her life began in pursuit of her favorite and useful work - medicine.

There were few doctors in the province. The population of the county (about 136 thousand people) was served by a single doctor. Epidemics of plague, cholera, smallpox, and typhus claimed thousands of lives. In a specially built wooden building, Bakunina opened a hospital with eight beds, conducted receptions and provided medical care at her own expense, and she herself paid the doctor’s allowance. Thus, the first stone was laid in the foundation of zemstvo medicine in Novotorzhsky district.

At first, the peasants were wary of the master's idea. But soon the distrust disappeared, and by the end of the year the number of people who received assistance exceeded two thousand people, a year later it doubled, and continued to grow. I started taking Bakunin in the morning. During the day, she traveled around the sick in a peasant cart, bandaged them, and gave medicines, which she expertly prepared herself. WITH special attention belonged to peasant children. She willingly accepted the duties of trustee of all zemstvo hospitals in the district, which were distinguished in the province in that they did not charge fees for medical care.

Until the end of her days, already in Kozitsin, Bakunina continued to defend the sick and powerless, remaining an example, an accusatory conscience for pragmatic people. The life of Ekaterina Mikhailovna is undoubtedly a shining example of public service. She happened to become one of the organizers of the hospital business in Russia and medical care in Tver province. Her merits were recognized by her contemporaries, and her name was included in pre-revolutionary reference publications.

In 1877, Russia entered the Russo-Turkish War. Having received an invitation from Grand Duchess Ekaterina Mikhailovna in the spring of 1877 to lead one of the detachments of Red Cross sisters sent to the Caucasus, Bakunina hesitated for a long time - it was a pity to leave the nest she had nurtured. However, no matter how much she loved her Kazitsin hospital, she was involuntarily drawn there, to the theater of military operations, where her energy and activity could find a wider and more extensive field, and, finally, she could not stand it - in May 1877 she arrived in St. Petersburg. Grand Duchess Ekaterina Mikhailovna received her extremely cordially and introduced Ekaterina Maximilianovna to Princess of Oldenburg, who was then taking an active part in organizing and sending sanitary detachments to the theater of military operations. Princess of Oldenburg understood and appreciated Ekaterina Mikhailovna, and after a while she and a detachment of sisters of mercy went to the Caucasus as the head of the detachment. The detachment consisted of twenty-eight sisters, mostly from wealthy families in the capital. All of them were sincerely devoted to their work and corresponded to the high ideal of a sister that lived in the heart of Ekaterina Mikhailovna

Despite her 65-year-old age, she goes to the Caucasus as the head of nurses in temporary hospitals.

Departure of the Sisters of Charity. 1877

Its activities here were even more extensive than during the Crimean War. This time Ekaterina Mikhailovna spent more than a year at the front. Saying goodbye, doctors from five reformed hospitals presented her with a memorable address: “In all respects, you were worthy of the name of a Russian warrior. From beginning to end, you remained faithful to your program - to serve as an example to your younger friends in everything... We, the doctors, for whom you were a trustworthy and experienced assistant, have and will forever retain a feeling of boundless gratitude to you. Your name will not be erased from the memory of the sick, to whom you completely sacrificed yourself.”

In 1881, he came to Ekaterina Mikhailovna in Kozitsin Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy. Remembering Sevastopol, he asked her: “Don’t you really have a desire to rest, to change the situation?” “No, and where can I go when people are waiting for me every day. Can I leave them? - she answered. These words contain the quintessence, basic content and meaning of the nursing profession. In her charitable activities, Bakunina put forward her motto: “In the name of God, everything is for people.”

In 1893, a year before her death, Bakunina wrote the book “Memoirs of a Sister of Mercy of the Holy Cross Community,” in which we see her, energetic, fiery, with sparkling eyes and speeches, in simple peasant boots, cheerfully walking through impassable mud when she struggled with careless non-commissioned officers for their transport with the sick and wounded.

IN last years life, no longer able to work hard and actively, Bakunina said with a sad smile: “Alas! I'm enlisted in the reserves! She died on August 11, 1994 in the village of Kozitsino and was buried in the village of Pryamukhino (now Kuvshinovsky district) in the Tver province in the Bakunin family crypt.

The name of Ekaterina Mikhailovna Bakunina is borne by the Society of Orthodox Doctors in Tver, the Regional Perinatal Center in Tver. In 2011 organized Charitable Foundation them. Ekaterina Bakunina.

Tver Medical College (Tver Medical College) considers E. M. Bakunina a role model. A scholarship was established for the best college students. Bakunina. Within the walls of the Tver Medical College there is an exhibition dedicated to the life and work of this amazing woman.

From Guest

I gave birth when I was 11! excellent attitude towards both mother and baby!!! clean and comfortable, toilet and shower are almost in the room, which is very convenient)

From Guest

I arrived at the maternity home on the night of May 13, contractions began and the traffic jam came out at 9 am, she looked at me and said that it was false contractions and the period was short, 37 weeks. I suffered for three days so they didn’t want to mess it up. On the 15th in the evening I went to the medical staff and said that I was starting to tell me to take a pill. and everything passed two hours and it got even worse, the nurse came and took me to the doctor, the doctor told me to be rude, go write for a cesarean quickly, I wrote and the doctor says you’re already infecting and I gave birth at 01:00 in the operating room everything went well, the doctors there are great

From Guest

I don’t know how the maternity hospital there understood one thing: without money, don’t even bother there; the deputy head of the doctor is a complete creature of some kind of humanity; the doctors are mostly snotty students who do ultrasounds at random; it’s better not to bother there; don’t waste your money and nerves.

From Guest

I gave birth in 2011 - I really liked everything! The doctors are good, and so is their attitude! The birth went smoothly! Each woman in labor has a separate delivery room with all the necessary equipment, shower and toilet! After giving birth, my son was always next to me! The nurses helped to wash the baby if it was not possible to swaddle him. Also, if anyone was missing breast milk, you could take bottles of ready-made formula milk at any time. Now we are waiting for the second one, I plan to give birth again in Perinatal!

From Guest

I heard a lot of good things about this center from friends, so I decided to go with my questions and problems for a consultation with Tver specialists. I’ll say right away that I’m like many from the region. The essence of my problem was that last summer I had a miscarriage at term6 -7 weeks and I would really like to get advice about planning the next pregnancy. But everything turned out to be not as simple as I expected. But I’ll start from the beginning. I signed up for the center 2 weeks in advance as they advised me for a certain time convenient for me. Approaching the registration desk, the registrar checked me in and told me the number of the office I was supposed to go to - this was probably the most positive thing I had to experience here. And then the nightmare began. According to this so-called preliminary appointment, I had to sit in the center’s corridor for 4 hours. My time had long passed, but the doctor called and called other patients whose time was much later than mine or patients with a referral (after all, they were already pregnant, although during the appointment they told me that only pregnant women go until 12 o’clock and after 12 everyone else). I had a headache. , I’m not even talking about all the other places that I had to serve. But finally, here I am at the appointment. I’ll note right away that the doctor did not listen to me carefully and was reluctant. And she even made an incorrect entry on the card about the name of the contraceptives that I had to take. Next I was undergoing an examination. The doctor kept asking me if they had told me this or other gynecologists whom I had seen before. You might think that the doctor I came across was not at all competent and he had no opinion about the examination! After all, I was going for a consultation specifically to regional specialists. Another thing I missed - the examination room is equipped with a new model of gynecological chair. When I entered, the chair was lowered almost to the floor and vertical, but the doctor lifted it and brought it to a horizontal position, there were no steps to climb onto it So jump as you want or as you wish! Although, again, from reviews, I heard that the doctor raises the chair to a certain height with the patient and there is no need to jump anywhere. I never received any clear explanations about the examination, nor did I receive any appointments regarding my consultation. I only understood that they were treating me well and attentively here only to already pregnant women, and especially one miscarriage is nonsense, so when there is a second or third then come and we will examine and treat! But why bring it to this after all easier disease prevent rather than treat later! Moreover, losing a child is always a trauma for a woman’s soul!

Ekaterina Shipitsina

The Tver Regional Perinatal Center is named after Ekaterina Mikhailovna Bakunina, the heroine of two wars in the 19th century. The great surgeon Nikolai Ivanovich Pirogov, speaking about the undeniable contribution to world history of Russian sisters of mercy, rightly considered Ekaterina Bakunina, whose roots are closely connected with the Tver land, to be the most outstanding among them. The Center accepts patients not only from Tver and the Tver region, but also from other regions of Russia. He talks about the pride of Tver medicine chief physician State Healthcare Institution “Regional Clinical Perinatal Center named after. Bakunina" Lyudmila Grebenshchikova.

— Lyudmila Yuryevna, the statement that children are our future is undeniable. The future in this light becomes real for women and men whose chances of becoming parents are not so great. And today, and precisely in your perinatal center. Tell us how you make your dreams come true?

— Fulfilling such lofty dreams has become a reality for Tver residents. After all, previously there was no third-level obstetric institution in the Tver region. Now this is the perinatal center. In our unique institution, for the birth, rescue, treatment of both newborns and their parents, Newest technologies. Children weighing from 500 grams are nursed here. The perinatal center has a capacity of 130 beds. The structure of the Center includes a clinical diagnostic clinic with 100 visits per shift; appointments are organized in two six-day shifts. The KDP includes an ultrasound diagnostic department, which is equipped with equipment of the first and expert classes, a department of medical genetic consultation and a department of assisted reproductive technologies (IVF), which for outpatient care is part of the clinic, and for invasive areas the same department will also be included to the hospital, which will happen in 2012. The CDP sees not only obstetricians-gynecologists, but also specialized specialists: cardiologist, neurologist, nephrologist, ophthalmologist, urologist, therapist, endocrinologist. We examine and treat not only pregnant women, but also women of fertile age with gynecological problems and women planning pregnancy. In addition, we have opened a school for mothers, where not only expectant mothers go, but also married couples planning a partner birth, as well as women whose pregnancy turned out to be a crisis. A psychologist and an obstetrician-gynecologist help overcome this barrier. We accompany the woman throughout her pregnancy, and then she gives birth within the walls of our institution.

To help doctors there is a powerful laboratory that carries out clinical, biochemical, immunological, bacteriological, histological examination. Under the state guarantee program, a woman can also be examined free of charge for a particular pathology. A pediatric unit with a pediatric intensive care unit, which we plan to upgrade to 12 beds in 2012, and a neonatal pathology department with 30 beds, where children with extremely low body weight are cared for. There is also a pregnancy pathology department, where women with extragenital diseases or with the pathology of pregnancy itself. And in the gynecological department we perform operations of any complexity, with minimally invasive surgery (endoscopic access) predominating.

— It is impossible not to say about the most important thing: how is childbirth organized in your Center and what are the indicators in this work?

— The center’s capacity is also expressed in such a figure as the number of births per year. Our center is designed for 2.5-3 thousand births. In addition, the perinatal center includes an obstetric department, which includes a maternity unit for 10 individual births. Each such ward is equipped with modern equipment plus convenient service conditions. Here the woman in labor can be either alone or with her husband or other relatives. After giving birth, we transfer the young mother and her newborn to the postpartum ward, where we have 50 beds.

In 2010, we could not reach full capacity, but since 2011 we have a different situation - 2,320 births have already been completed. Premature birth in 2010 it was 10%, and now it is 19%.
