Situation: 

Because of the war that Russia has started in Ukraine, there has been a very large increase in the number of injured and traumatised people in all cities. The Ukrainian healthcare system and hospitals all over the cities cannot cope with the number of patients, partly because the equipment is often outdated or simply lacking.

Objectives:

Improving operational treatment for the population affected by war and displacement in the Ukrainian cities of Kyiv, Kropyvnysky, Zaporizhzhya and Mykolaiv

Situation: 

Due to the ongoing military offensive of the Russian army in Ukraine and the spatial expansion, the number of people affected is growing exponentially. The health system is severely affected and capacities are overloaded in the conflict zones. Access to health care is also critical due to the acute danger situation and therefore limited mobility.
 

Objectives:

Improving medical diagnostics (X-ray diagnostics) for the population affected by war and displacement in the Ukrainian cities of Kyiv, Lviv, Ternopil and Mykolaiv    

Situation: 

Due to the Russian aggression, the midwifery station was completely destroyed. The station was a focal point for pregnant women and infants from Kolychivka and neighboring villages for basic medical care. Three medical specialists worked in the midwife station. They were supported by regular visits from (specialist) doctors. 

Objectives:

The Feldsher Midwifery Station in Kolychivka is restored.

Situation: 

At least 7,000 patients with cleft conditions in Kenya still require primary cleft surgery and many more have not received the requisite secondary surgery or comprehensive care support such as nutrition, speech and dental because of the social and economic barriers encountered in accessing and receiving care. 

Situation:

At the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine in violation of international law, the University Hospital of Schleswig-Holstein (UKSH) launched the special aid project "UKSH helps Ukraine" on 1.3.22, which is unique for hospitals throughout Germany. A UKSH task force coordinates the donations and the UKSH's own aid transports and ensures that all donations arrive in a targeted manner where they are needed.

Situation: 

The Ukraine is a very poor country with a very needy infrastructure. The hospital in Mukachevo serves around 400,000 people. Because of the war many internally displaced people have flooded into the city and in April and May alone, the hospital treated 30-35% more in-patients than ever before. The operating methods and equipment are quite old which means that patients are more at risk than in western hospitals and their stay in hospital is much longer.

Objectives:

Situation:

The Amosov National Institute of Cardio-Vascular Surgery in Kiev is one of the most important healthcare institutions in Ukraine. Patients from all over the country are brought here and treated by specialists. Seriously ill children from all over the country are also treated here.
Due to the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine, the hospital has to treat significantly more patients. Therefore, a mobile X-ray machine is urgently needed for pre- and post-operative diagnostic checks of the children in the pediatric intensive care unit.
