Israeli Ambassador Michael Brodsky and Serhii Morhunov to Discuss Internship of Vinnytsia Doctors

Today, January 19, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the State of Israel to Ukraine Michael Brodsky will pay a working visit to Vinnytsia. Vinnytsia Mayor Serhii Morhunov will meet with the guest. Among other things, it is planned to discuss the prospects for training of Vinnytsia doctors in Israeli clinics, which are considered to be the world's leading.

Last year, Vinnytsia municipality held talks with Israeli clinics on training programs for our doctors in emergency and resuscitation departments.

"It is very important for us that doctors receive the best European practices in providing quality medical care. For example, we have a partnership with the Sacred Heart Hospital - Don Calabria in Italy, where Vinnytsia doctors underwent internships. We hope that this year our doctors will be able to gain best practices in Israeli hospitals. After all, Israel is one of the leaders in emergency medicine," said Oleksandr Shysh, director of the City Council's Healthcare Department.

Specialists from Vinnytsia City Clinical Emergency Hospital and City Clinical Hospital №1 will be sent to the internship in advance. Also, in addition to issues of cooperation in the medical field, the participants of the meeting will touch upon the development of partnerships in the economic and socio-cultural spheres.

In recent years, in particular, cooperation in the economic sphere has intensified: in 2019, Memorandum of Understanding and Cooperation was signed with the Israel-Ukraine Chamber of Industry and Innovation. The parties also identified measures to present the economic and investment potential of Vinnytsia region for Israeli investors.
