Paediatric Resources for Ukrainian Support

INTRODUCTION

This open-access repository is a EUSEP/EAPS initiative that is meant to provide clinicians with shared resources to facilitate provision of optimal care to Ukrainian refugee children in many settings (i.e. in the field, in the in-hospital or out-of hospital setting). Resources can be surfed by topic or by issuing source.

The repository will be updated on a regular basis.

If you wish to contribute to sharing resources, please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. . The material will undergo assessment by our working group in order to be uploaded in this repository.
