Direct Relief is working with Ukraine's Ministry of Health and other groups in the region to provide requested medical aid-from oxygen concentrators to critical care medicines-while preparing to offer longer-term assistance to people displaced or affected by the war. Mass displacement leads to a host of health problems. Direct Relief is already working with medical manufacturers to source medical aid needed in the coming weeks and months.
Challenge
Health concerns during this time include medical needs for hundreds of thousands of people that have been internally displaced within Ukraine and many others that have fled into refugee camps that have been established in the neighboring countries of Moldova, Poland, and others.
Long-Term Impact
The long-term impact will be improved health for people who have been affected by the crisis in Ukraine.
