Olomouc, Nikolské – Czech beds with bedside tables, sterilizers and CombiSets for operating theaters are already used in a hospital in Nikolsky, Ukraine. The city is located in the Donetsk region, which was hit by armed conflict. The equipment was sent to Ukraine at the end of July by the Archdiocesan Caritas Olomouc with its donors.

The necessary things were divided on the spot by Caritas Mariupol. “Hospital beds, bedside tables, mattresses and medical CombiSets are now being used at the Central District Hospital in Nikolsky. The conditions for local patients and doctors have been improved. We sincerely thank our colleagues from the Archdiocesan Caritas Olomouc for their support and assistance to the people of eastern Ukraine, ”said Deputy Charity Director Mariupol Evhen Chako.
