This includes pediatricians and psychologists. They are all on standby to assist. Families there can contact specialists for free 24 hours a day and fast. The midwives can even assist with deliveries online and instruct bystanders. At the moment they are also working on setting up a platform from Ukraine for a wider reach. The platform will then also transfer the more professional platform. Until then, Facebook can be used for medical contacts.
