About the project
Starting from October 2022, every month the Mobile Medical Care team travels to de-occupied territories, to small settlements that were left without access to medical services and medicines. In general, the project is implemented in three main stages:
1. Preparation for arrival
2. Diagnosis and medical support of patients
3. Delivery of medicines and glasses
For the convenience of patients, a preliminary record is made. Diagnostic results and recommendations are printed.
All medicines and glasses are issued free of charge with the financial support of our partners.
Mobile medical service has not lost its relevance for more than a year. In some cities have resumed their work or continue to work as therapists. However, it remains impossible to receive diversely qualified assistance from specialized doctors, especially for elderly patients or vulnerable categories of the population.
