17 April , 2024  

Representatives of the Embassy of the Republic of Poland, prosthesis manufacturer EnForce Medical Technologies, and the Siepomaga Charitable Foundation, together with representatives of the Ministry of Veterans Affairs, visited the center for social and psychological rehabilitation in Borodyanka, Kyiv region, where they are considering the possibility of establishing a Ukrainian-Polish prosthetics center.

“It is planned that people will be able to receive prosthetics and undergo rehabilitation in such an institution,” the Ministry of Reintegration of the Temporarily Occupied Territories of Ukraine reports.

Veterans, participants of the Invictus Games, were the first to inspect the facility. In particular, they tested the accessibility, availability of everything necessary for the psychological and physical rehabilitation of veterans with disabilities, and checked the quality of services.

Now an expert assessment is expected from the Polish side on the possibility of its placement in the Borodyansky Center.

The initiative to establish the Ukrainian-Polish Prosthetics Center was discussed within the framework of the Ukrainian-Polish intergovernmental commission.

The possibility of expanding the existing center through additional construction is under discussion.
