The physician assistant from Denver has been in Ukraine for two weeks with the Kansas-based nonprofit“We’ve set up locations in churches and schools. Today we were actually in a medical clinic, which I was very happy about. I mean, I was in a closet in a medical clinic, but you have to work with what you got,” Amis said in a Zoom interview while stationed in Odesa.
“In the first six weeks of Russia in Ukraine, we began to recognize that the doctors in smaller communities were being reassigned to active combat zones,” said Scott Oberkrom, the CEO of Global Care Force. “The residents of the communities who were not able to relocate or flee from Ukraine are left without health care. So we developed the model of mobile clinics with in-country partners.”
He helped a group of people who were hiding in a basement for 40 days. They were 60- to 70-year-olds with different chronic illnesses who weren’t getting their necessary medicine. They also developed high blood pressure and post-traumatic stress disorder.
