The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has allowed veterans to receive sports prostheses without additional certificates for participation in competitions, training, or personal rehabilitation, Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko announced.
“Treatment for Ukrainian civilians released from Russian captivity. From now on, treatment at a sanatorium can be accompanied by one person — a family member or companion,” Svyrydenko wrote on Telegram following Wednesday’s government meeting.
In addition, the Cabinet of Ministers adopted a decision at the meeting that should simplify the process of obtaining a sports prosthesis.
“It is no longer necessary to be a member of a sports organization or to participate in competitions included in state or regional calendars. From now on, veterans will be able to obtain a sports prosthesis without additional certificates, both for participation in competitions and for training or personal rehabilitation,” the prime minister added.
