“It is part of my job to help people if they are broken,” Manko says in halting English from the makeshift clinic inside a community centre in Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi, two hours south of Kyiv.It’s always busy, Manko adds. Most patients seeking help are elderly or young children. Most of the mobile units have set up shop in the Cherkasy Oblast region, a relatively safe area where about 300,000 Ukrainians have taken refuge. They haveSome fled heavy fighting in areas including Donbas and Kharkiv.
“The health system has been affected severely because of less resources and also the people who are displaced, They don’t have access to this care,” he says.“First, it’s the safety. There’s relatively less attacks in this region. “You have young people who suddenly were injured and their lives have changed after amputation and things like this. It’s a difficult condition, so we’re trying to at least give them a bit of help.”
