On October 11, 2022, a Memorandum was signed between the Transcarpathian Regional Council, the Charity Fund "Help to Ukraine" and the Onokiv Territorial Community.
We are talking about the construction of a multi-vector modern rehabilitation center on the territory of the Onokiv OTG for persons who took part in hostilities and anti-terrorist operations, their family members, and in general to provide health, medical, psychological and moral assistance to Transcarpathians.
According to the chairman of the Transcarpathian Regional Council Volodymyr Chubirko, the signing of the memorandum was preceded by a long search for a location where such a center could be located. Ahead of the design and execution of permits. The center, which is planned to be built near the village of Orekhovitsa, will attract about 1,000 jobs, of which 400 are doctors and the rest are attendants. The Regional Council promises to do its best to speed up the execution of all necessary documents for the start of construction.
“Attracting funds from internal and external investors to relieve local and regional budgets, while developing infrastructure, is our front and the priority task of the regional council in the conditions of martial law. The implementation of such ideas in the region shows that we are a reliable rear for the whole of Ukraine. Taking into account other, less ambitious, but very necessary projects, such as the rehabilitation center on the basis of the "Boat" sanatorium, the regional hospital for war veterans and others, Transcarpathia is gradually turning into the rehabilitation hub of Ukraine." - said Vladimir Chubirko.
In turn, Serhiy Konovalenko, Chairman of the Board of the Charitable Foundation "Aid Ukraine", said that there are no analogues to the rehabilitation center, which is currently being designed, in terms of specifics, in Ukraine and, perhaps, in all of Europe. The entire center will cover an area of more than 38 hectares in the middle of a forest in a place near Lake Shambhala. State-of-the-art medical equipment will be installed here and leading specialists in the field of rehabilitation will be invited to work. The center also plans to manufacture prostheses.
