Project provides mobile medical care to vulnerable groups-elderly people, women, children, and internally displaced persons in war-affected regions of Ukraine (Kharkiv and Sumy). Polish Medical Mission, together with FRIDA Foundation, operates two Mobile Clinics equipped with doctors, nurses, and essential free of charge medications to reach vulnerable patients who can't access healthcare due to damaged infrastructure and displacement. This support includes also basic laboratory diagnostics.
In frontline and liberated areas of Ukraine-particularly Kharkiv and Sumy Oblasts-access to healthcare remains severely limited. According to WHO, 81% of households in frontline regions cannot obtain essential medicines, and nearly 1 in 10 households have no access to their primary healthcare facility at all. Many medical facilities have been damaged or destroyed, and a lack of qualified staff persists.
Project addresses the problem by operating 2 Mobile Clinics and 1 stationary Laboratory, delivering essential medical consultations, diagnostic tests, preventive care and medications to underserved populations with special focus on vulnerable groups such as the elderly, children, and displaced persons. It provides on-site treatment for chronic and acute illnesses as well as mental health support.
By providing basic medical consultations to at least 9,000 people and delivering diagnostic tests to over 1,700 patients through the Laboratory, the project will significantly improve early detection and management of chronic and infectious diseases in two of Ukraine's most affected regions. Ensuring regular access to medical care and essential medications reduces the risk of complications, hospitalizations, and long-term physical and mental disability.
