Who we are
The Institute for Emergency Medicine is a highly respected Polish institution established in 1998 with the mission to promote education on emergency medicine, first aid, and organization of the system of emergency medicine, and to standardize emergency medical procedures. Since the beginning of Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, the Institute has been aiding the citizens of the invaded country. We have delivered essential medical supplies to hospitals in the region of Kharkiv, Kyiv, Odesa, and Lviv, as well as equipment for rescue teams working in the war-torn territory.
