The project "Ensuring Access to Essential Medical Care in Eastern Ukraine" is making significant progress over the past three months. We are focused on providing vital medical services to residents of remote areas in Kramatorsk, and we are already seeing results!

Now, every resident has the opportunity to undergo health check-ups, and for the elderly and those with chronic conditions, scheduled visits from our medical teams have become a reality.

Our team is constantly improving! We have planned a new series of training sessions and team-building activities, where doctors and nurses will enhance their knowledge in medicine, stress management, and psychology.

Our main value is ensuring a dignified and safe life for every individual. We are committed to continuing our mission to help those in need.

We have equipped our medical vehicles with all the necessary tools for examinations and first aid. In addition to various devices for initial patient assessments—such as portable ultrasound machines, mobile ECGs, glucometers, blood pressure monitors, and defibrillators—we have supplied our ambulances with essential medications.

This week, we received our first shipment of medications, including various rapid tests and diagnostic supplies for conditions such as HIV, hepatitis B and C, STIs, COVID-19, influenza, rotavirus, and streptococcal throat infections. We also have test strips for glucometers and universal lancing devices for blood sugar analysis. Furthermore, our medical vehicles are stocked with a wide range of medications, including those for cardiovascular diseases, anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, analgesics, and treatments for gastrointestinal and respiratory issues, along with ointments, bandages, and other necessary medical supplies.

We are grateful to everyone supporting our project and will continue to work for the benefit of the community, ensuring access to quality medical care and medications for all who need them.
