Legen bodde p\u00e5 Kistrand i Porsanger, omkring 150 km fra Karasjok. Det kunne ta 2 \u2013 3 d\u00f8gn f\u00f8r legen rakk fram, og de syke kunne v\u00e6re friske eller d\u00f8de f\u00f8r legen kom fram. Det ble en bedring da stedet fikk egen lege i 1912.<\/p>\n<p>Syke og gamle som ikke kunne hjelpes hjemme av familie eller venner, ble f\u00f8rt ut av kommunen. N\u00e6rmeste gamlehjem l\u00e5 fra 1902 p\u00e5 Kistrand i Porsanger, men gamle ble ogs\u00e5 f\u00f8rt til hjemmet i Lebesby eller andre gamlehjem.<\/p>\n<p>Tuberkulosen var en grusom folkesykdom. St\u00f8rst d\u00f8delighet var det i Finnmark. Fram til 1919 m\u00e5tte syke f\u00f8res til Tanag\u00e5rd eller andre institusjoner. Det \u00e5ret fikk den lokale tuberkuloseforeningen reist et tuberkulosehjem i Karasjok. Det l\u00e5 p\u00e5 en terrasse p\u00e5 nordsiden av elva. Det var en r\u00f8dmalt bygning i 2 etasjer med loft. De tuberkul\u00f8se fikk plass i f\u00f8rste etasje, mens andre etasje ble brukt til sykestue og loftet for betjeningen.<\/p>\n<p>Det var Samemisjonen som sto for driften, og Elen Grande fra Leksvik i Tr\u00f8ndelag var sykes\u00f8ster fra 1920 og arbeidet i Karasjok hele sitt liv. Kirsten Svineng (Mamma Karasjok) ble tidlig ansatt som nattevakt p\u00e5 sykestua.<\/p>\n<p>Da de tyske styrkene trakk seg ut av omr\u00e5det, brukte de den brente jords taktikk. All bebyggelse, unntatt den gamle kirka, ble brent i november 1944. Mens de aller fleste dro til skogs eller opp til avsidesliggende omr\u00e5der og overvintret, ble syke og gamle, omkring 50 personer f\u00f8rt s\u00f8rover.<\/p>\n<p>Noen av de tvangsevakuerte havnet p\u00e5 tuberkulosehjemmet i Selbu. Mange av dem d\u00f8de mens de var evakuert, ogs\u00e5 i \u00e5rene etter krigen. I en hard gjenreisningstid etter krigen, kunne man ikke hente hjem alle. Et lite pleie- og gamlehjem ble opprettet i en brakke i 1946. F\u00f8rst i 1956 kunne et nytt syke- og gamlehjem tas i bruk. Fortsatt sto Samemisjonen og Elen Grande for driften, inntil et nytt, kommunalt helsesenter sto klart p\u00e5 det nye kommunesenteret.<\/p>\n<h4><span lang=\"SV\">Kilder:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span lang=\"SV\">Hansson, Per: Mamma Karasjok, 1970<\/span><\/p>\n<p>L\u00f8ining, Bendiks: Beretning fra tiden f\u00f8r 1945<\/p>\n<p>Petterson, Arvid: Fortiet fortid, 2008<\/p>\n<p>Steen.

The doctor lived at Kistrand in Porsanger, about 150 kilometres from Karasjok. It could take two to three days for the doctor to arrive, by which time the sick might have recovered or died. Things improved when the place got its own doctor in 1912.<\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The old and infirm who could not be helped at home by family or friends were taken out of the municipality. The closest old people\u2019s home from 1902 onward was at Kistrand in Porsanger, but the elderly were also taken to the home in Lebesby or other old people\u2019s homes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Tuberculosis was a terrible and widespread disease. Finnmark suffered the highest mortality rate. Until 1919, sick people had to be taken to Tanag\u00e5rd or other institutions. That year, the local tuberculosis organisation built a tuberculosis home in Karasjok. Situated on a terrace on the north side of the river, it was a red-painted building on two floors with an attic. TB sufferers were placed on the ground floor, while the upper floor was used as a hospital ward and the attic used for staff.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">It was operated by the Sami Mission. Elen Grande, from Leksvik in Tr\u00f8ndelag, was a sister from 1920 and worked in Karasjok all her life. Kirsten Svineng (also known as \u00abMamma Karasjok\u00bb) was employed as a night nurse on the ward at an early date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The German forces employed scorched-earth tactics when they pulled out of the area. All of the buildings, except for the old church, were burned in November 1944. While most of the locals fled to the forests or up to outlying areas to overwinter, about 50 elderly and infirm people headed south.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Some of the forced evacuees ended up at the tuberculosis home in Selbu. Many of them died while they were being evacuated or in the years immediately following the war. Not everyone could be brought home in the difficult rebuilding period after the war. In 1946, a small nursing and old people\u2019s home was set up in a barracks. Not until 1956 was a new hospital and old people\u2019s home brought into use. The Sami Mission and Elen Grande continued to manage its operation until a new municipal health centre was completed for the new municipal centre.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Sources:<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Hansson, Per: Mama Karasjok, 1970<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">L\u00f8ining, Bendiks: Account of the time before 1945<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Petterson, Arvid: Fortiet fortid (English: The Hidden Past), 2008<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Steen, Adolf: Finnemisjonen 75 \u00e5r (English: The Finland Mission at 75 years), 1963<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>K\u00e1r\u00e1\u0161joga buhcciid- ja tuberkolosaruoktu Karasjok Hospital and Tuberculosis Home Forfatter\/\u010c\u00e1lli\/Author: Arvid Petterson &nbsp; Teksta S\u00e1megilli lea Vuollelis Text in English, see below F\u00f8r 1919 fantes det ikke noen offentlige helsetiltak i Karasjok.
