Regardless of the recent attacks on various Ukrainian cities, the
"Medikamentenhilfswerk" (medication aid agency) of our alliance organization
action medeor will continue to deliver aid.
"After consultation with our partners, we will continue to supply hospitals and
refugee facilities in the Ukraine as before. The humanitarian work will continue"
confirms Sid Peruvemba, spokesman for the board of our alliance organization
action medeor.
"We continue to consider deliveries to be responsible"
Since the beginning of the war, the "aid agency" has been delivering urgently
needed medicines, medical materials and medical technology equipment to
Ukraine - including to facilities in the cities of Lviv, Ternopil, Kyiv and
Ivano-Frankivsk, which have now been hit by missile attacks.
"We continue to consider the deliveries to be responsible", says Sid Peruvemba,
"we will make any adjustments depending on the security situation."
action medeor works with partners in Ukraine
The "world's emergency pharmacy", as our alliance organization action medeor is
also known, has dispatched more than 120 aid deliveries since the beginning of
the war. The aid transports are usually loaded onto large trucks in Germany and
then repacked onto small vans in Ukraine, which are less conspicuous and therefore
safer from attacks.
action medeor also cooperates locally with various partners. "We have now built
up a broad network of logisticians, hospitals, pharmacies and local aid
organizations with whom we work closely and trustingly", explains Peruvemba.
Alliance organization has secured medical aid since the beginning of the war
In recent months, tons of medicines, bandages, medical equipment and also medical
devices have been brought to Ukraine via this network.
"Among other things, we have supplied various hospitals with mobile ultrasound
and X-ray devices that can also be used in air raid shelters if necessary",
explains Peruvemba. Our alliance organization action medeor has sent
operating tables, beds and even entire ambulances on their way.
Three supply lines to Ukraine
action medeor has set up three routes over the past six months in order to bring
as many aid supplies as possible to the people in the Ukraine. The first supply
line runs via the western Ukrainian city of Ternopil, where our alliance
organization action medeor, together with a local partner organization, has set up
a distribution center for medical supplies that delivers to hospitals throughout
the country.
A second line of help was set up in Moldova and in the Odessa region, where
action medeor supports refugee families, a social pharmacy and several regional
hospitals.
The third variant consists of an increasing number of individual transports,
because more and more hospitals from all parts of the Ukraine are turning to
our alliance organization action medeor directly to be supplied with medicines,
bandages, medical equipment and technical equipment.
Thank you for your help in securing these measures!
