Dear healthcare professionals, colleagues!
Please accept our warmest congratulations on your professional holiday and our deep gratitude for your work.
This year, Ukraine is celebrating Medical Worker’s Day on a new date for the first time. A fundamentally different one, because we have become different. Our medics are heroically holding another line of defense – the medical front. Despite all the challenges and risks, at the front line or in the rear, your professional calling remains unchanged – to stand guard over human health and life every day.
A low bow to the medics who are now selflessly saving the lives of our soldiers on the firing lines.
Quality medicine today is the key to the successful functioning of the state. I am proud that everyone I know in the field and with whom I have the honor to work are talented, high-class specialists, professionals in their field.
It is especially pleasant to welcome today the colleagues of the Center, as well as representatives of consultative and expert groups and pharmacovigilance representatives in the regions, with whom we cooperate and whose activities are inextricably linked with the healthcare sector. Among the staff of the State Expert Center, 227 have a medical/pharmaceutical education and significant work experience in the field. They practiced or still practice. 18 hold the honorary titles of candidates and doctors of medical/pharmaceutical sciences.
Greetings, colleagues! Regardless of positions and statuses, each of you has your own mission and special responsibility, without which a high-quality result and the further development of medicine in the country are impossible.
I express my immense gratitude to all healthcare workers and veterans of the healthcare sector for their tireless, noble work, self-sacrifice, and dedication to the profession. I sincerely wish each and every one of you peace, good health, success, further career growth, happiness, prosperity, and well-being! I am confident that only by working shoulder to shoulder will we be able to achieve new victories, which our doctors and the medical sector of Ukraine undoubtedly deserve.
Sincerely
Director of the State Enterprise “State Expert Center of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine”
