The bus carrying Ukrainian soldiers was received by Charg\u00e9 d\u2019Affaires of the Embassy of Ukraine to the Republic of Latvia, Yurii Zakharchuk<\/strong>, Dmytro Kindrys<\/strong>, and Natalia Bereza<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As usual, patients were admitted by the medical team from East Hospital\u2019s Emergency Medicine and Patient Admission Clinic (EMPAC), including Aleksejs Vi\u0161\u0146akovs<\/strong>, Gen\u0101dijs Ri\u010dards Rusanovs<\/strong>, and Inese Larionova<\/strong>, as well as various specialists and nursing staff.<\/p>\n

All patients arriving from Ukraine underwent a thorough health evaluation at the EMPAC, including various laboratory tests and the examination for the possible presence of multidrug-resistant infections, as they can rapidly emerge and spread in wartime conditions. Several injured patients underwent additional radiological examinations by specialists in the Emergency Radiology Department to determine the specifics of their injuries.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, other patients will be transferred to other healthcare facilities in Latvia, depending on the nature of their injuries, after being examined at the EMPAC. Seven patients are to be transferred to the Vaivari National Rehabilitation Centre, while three\u00a0patients will be transported to the L\u012bgatne Rehabilitation Centre and 24\u00a0patients\u00a0\u2013 to the Jaun\u0137emeri Rehabilitation Centre.<\/p>\n

It is the private initiative by the founders of the charity project M-Help.com, Arvis Rekets and M\u0101rti\u0146\u0161 Medinieks, that made it possible to transport the patients affected by the war in Ukraine to East Hospital.<\/p>\n
