What we do?
We are implementing a comprehensive project to restore the swimming pool for patients in the military ward at the Kyiv Psychiatric Hospital (Pavlivka).
The pool is part of a rehabilitation program for military personnel and veterans with psychological and psychiatric problems.
Why do we do this and what is the benefit of it?
– psychological rehabilitation of military personnel and veterans
– physical rehabilitation through swimming and group classes
– socialization and resocialization
Who is the beneficiary?
– active military and veterans (100 to 200 patients per month)
– in the future, civilian patients of the hospital
– contractor – veteran construction company, which also performs a social function of supporting and reintegration of veterans
Who is the contractor?
Veterans Plus is a team of construction professionals, which, before the full-scale invasion, was an association of ATO veterans and volunteers. After a long pause in work and many changes, our idea, as well as our common desire for victory, remain unchanged.
Therefore, we continue to form a veteran environment with comfortable working conditions “among our” people who continue the struggle, but already in a civilian profession. We are confident that combat experience is not a limitation, but rather, it turns into valuable skills that can be converted into high-quality repair and construction work.
Mental health problems are something that combatants often face. It is in our hands to create a comfortable environment for their treatment and recovery. The main advantage of this project is that it does not “plug holes” in the system during wartime, but provides a sustainable tool for treatment and rehabilitation for years to come. Because high-quality and modern rehabilitation facilities are what the medical system needs most right now, and their establishment and development falls, among other things, on volunteer and charitable organizations.
Every hryvnia donated to this project is an opportunity for thousands of veterans and military personnel to receive quality treatment and rehabilitation, return to service, or integrate into civilian life.
