Washington, DC, and Kyiv, Ukraine, February 3, 2017 – The Ukrainian Ministry of Health recently recognized a team of local quality managers and laboratory specialists as national trainers, empowering them to provide training and mentoring in quality management systems to blood services throughout Ukraine.
The national trainers represent partner sites in a blood safety project implemented by the American International Health Alliance (AIHA) in Ukraine since 2012. This project supports the US President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and is funded by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
“The Ministry of Health highly appreciates the role AIHA’s blood safety project has played in assisting the country to start the process of developing an efficient blood service, not to mention the harmonizing of local legislation with EU Directives,” said Dr. Oksana Syvak, Deputy Minister of Health.
