As part of its #NursesforPeace campaign, ICN has made a donation to the Romanian Order which will be used to support ambulance teams, half of which are nurses, who are working with the Ukrainian refugees arriving in Romania after being forced to leave their country because of the conflict.

UKraine: International Council of Nurses (ICN) donations are being used to provide medication, equipment and supplies for the ambulance service.

ICN CEO Howard Catton said, “We are proud to support the work of the Order and are truly grateful to them.

Around half of the ambulance teams aiding the Ukrainian refugees are nurses and they are responding to a wide range of health needs in difficult circumstances.

We commend their courage and will stay in close contact with the Order’s President, Mircea Timofte, to see how else we can help them.”

Dr. Alis Grasu, the manager of SABIF, the Romanian National Public Ambulance Service was also present at the virtual meeting

He expressed gratitude for ICN’s support which had contributed to providing essential supplies for their work with Ukrainian refugees.

Dr Grasu emphasised that nurses were playing an essential role in the ambulance service’s response to the needs of the refugees.

ICN is working with a number of national nursing associations bordering Ukraine as well as the Ukraine Nurses Association and discussing ways to provide aid directly to nurses affected by the conflict

Last week, Mr Catton held a bilateral meeting with Ukraine’s Deputy Minister of Health, Oleksii Iaremenko, joined by the World Health Organization’s Chief Nursing Officer, Elizabeth Iro, where the focus was providing ສຸຂະພາບຈິດ support to Ukrainian nurses and health workers caught up in the conflict. ອ່ານເພີ່ມເຕີມທີ່ນີ້.
