Digital Health · App launched to support people who witness a cardiac arrestAn app has been launched to support people with the emotional distress of witnessing someone suffer an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).

Our focus is on medics and medical aid for those operating in remote and under resourced conditions. However, we sometimes support other initiatives as well.

Last week we made a small contribution to @solidaritycollectives who are supporting an #animal shelter in the east of #Ukraine. Our donation will go towards buying veterinary medicines.

See the original post to learn more about this initiative & perhaps contribute yourself: social.edist.ro/@solidaritycol

social.edist.roSolidarity Collectives (@solidaritycollectives@social.edist.ro)Attached: 1 image Recently, Solidarity Collectives made a joint trip with Eco Platform (https://t.me/ecoplatform) to the Vuhlyk (ua Charcoal) shelter. South greeted us with vast landscapes and steppe wind, escorting us to our destination. Vuhlyk is an animal shelter with a long history and has a few branches near Dnipro, Mykolaiv, and Kherson. The branch that we visited sits on the outskirts of the village and specialises mainly in horses, though it has other inhabitants: goats, ponies, donkeys, dogs and cats. We were welcomed in by the workers who were unloading hay brought by other volunteers. As for our part, we brought an aid cart: several bags of dog food, vegetables, fruits, medicines for horses, and fuel for generators to ensure access to electricity. Shelter has two stables, one of which is in need of repair, meanwhile, the animal population is constantly growing. One of the workers who has for many years taken care of the wards happily showed us around and introduced us to the animals. They joyfully interacted with us and eagerly tasted the sugar we brought. The volunteer also told us about hardships that the shelter faces and stories of the saved animals and the individualities of each of them. Some were bought out just before being sent to butchers, others saved from the frontline territories or simply left by their owners. Stories are diverse, but all of them found their home at Vuhlyk. The shelter needs help, and despite conditions that are harder to change — war, occupation, shortage of workers and trained veterinarians there are ways to do so. Provide food, medicine, and proper care of its inhabitants. Vuhlyk exists thanks to donations and volunteer support. We agreed to support their shelter and provide what’s necessary. You can also make a contribution. Donation details: 💳 Card number: 4441111050926215 🫙 Monobank Jar: https://send.monobank.ua/jar/uiSZk8CmM 🔗 💶 PayPal: solidarity.collectives@proton.me
