Health needs survey for Ikrainian displace persons and refugees

 

The Clinical Informatics Research Unit have a health needs survey, for Ukraine residents who are now refugees or displaced populations within Ukraine. The survey is available in Ukrainian, Russian (the first language of some Ukrainians), and English. Please do send this weblink to any relevant networks or contacts you may have.

The survey will be online, and ask questions around the individual’s location, quality of life issues such as oral health, and skin diseases, presence of long-term conditions such as diabetes or HIV, and their access to medicines.mThe data collected (anonymously) will be summarised and rapidly provided to the relevant humanitarian stakeholders in real-time. The aim is to inform logistics around provisions of supplies, medicines and to support healthcare facilities with understanding the prevalence of symptoms and conditions that they may be faced with.

If you are a humanitarian or health agency working with these populations, then please do get in touch with them. They are building their networks in these areas. When the survey is live, they will also appreciate sharing of the survey links.
