The Medychna Zirka and the Caritas signed a memorandum of cooperation

The All-Ukrainian network of health care institutions “Medychna Zirka” and the international charity organization “Caritas-Spes” Ukraine signed a memorandum to provide free assistance to the population affected by the war. Thanks to this, citizens of Ukraine will also be able to receive medical services online both in the middle of the country and abroad.

More than 500 doctors of the Medical Star from 30 departments located in 9 regions of the country will provide free medical services to the beneficiaries of Caritas-Spes Ukraine. In particular, patients will be able to sign declarations with family doctors and pediatricians.

“People with big hearts help to endure the trials of war. Ukrainians felt this support both in their own country and around the world. For us, becoming a partner of “Caritas-Spes Ukraine” means supporting charity effectively. That is why we direct all our efforts to provide high-quality primary medical care to people who have applied or will apply to Caritas-Spés. From the very beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia, our doctors helped those who needed it in the most dangerous parts of Ukraine. Therefore, the synergy of our efforts will be able to do even more!” – noted Igor Liski, the majority investor of the Medychna Zirka medical network.

According to the memorandum, the cooperation also includes professional training of doctors in the conditions of hostilities and raising the level of public awareness of pre-medical care for the injured. Doctors of the “Medychna Zirka” will also provide consultations to improve the qualifications of medical workers and improve the quality of medical services.

“War affects a person in various aspects. This is the issue of the poverty in which she finds herself, and the issue of destroyed houses, destroyed fate and health. We are called to unite our efforts in holistic help to people. The support of partners is very important for us, because it allows us to comprehensively surround a person with support. I am convinced that our cooperation will strengthen each of us in providing the help to which we are called” – Father Vyacheslav Hrynevych, Executive Director of Caritas-Spes Ukraine.
