Replay available

 

Under the ALIVE Solidarity initiative, we continue to provide support to those impacted by the war with interactive sessions with military and civilian doctors who will give practical recommendations on how to care for patients suffering from war-related trauma injuries. These free webinars are open to all healthcare professionals, especially those in Ukraine and neighbouring countries who compassionately receive and care for those wounded in the conflict.
