Physical therapy in hospitals

In 2009, the Zaporuka Foundation launched a physical therapy service for children undergoing treatment at the Cancer Institute. At that time, we set up a physical therapy room to help patients recover faster during their long-term treatment.

In 2023, we took another important step by opening rehabilitation halls for children and adults at the National Cancer Institute, the first such space in the country to be created on the basis of an oncology hospital. Here, patients receive more than just medical care - they find support, faith in themselves, and the opportunity to return to a life filled with movement, dreams, and hope.

Together with physical therapists, patients take their first steps after serious treatment, restore strength, develop joints, regain control over their bodies and, just as importantly, self-confidence.

To enable our specialists to work even more efficiently, we are equipping our departments with modern equipment. This not only facilitates the work of therapists, but also significantly speeds up the recovery of patients.

Every year, more than 100 young patients undergo rehabilitation with our physical therapists. This includes more than 2,000 individual sessions with children at the National Cancer Institute and Dacha.

Thanks to your contribution, we will be able to continue helping children recover during treatment and after surgery.
