With support. Eurasian Missions A medical retreat was organised with the participation of about one hundred medical workers from different regions of Ukraine. Among them were doctors, nurses and volunteers who help people on a daily basis, often working in difficult conditions.
Initially the team of organisers considered the format of the educational programme with a series of practical workshops. However, after conducting a survey it became clear that most of the participants were experiencing severe emotional and physical burnout. Therefore, it was decided to change the concept and dedicate the meeting to rest, recovery and communication.
This decision turned out to be the right one. The atmosphere of the retreat helped participants to truly relax, strengthen their inner strength and feel the support of their colleagues. The feedback we received was exceptionally warm - one of the best we have received in all our years of work. Some participants from the eastern regions admitted that the most valuable gift for them was the opportunity to simply stop, take a breath and finally get some sleep.
