WHAT WE DO
What does FSK N-U want to accomplish ?
- sharing knowledge between colleagues in the profession in the Netherlands and Ukraine.
- good health care, attainable and affordable for everybody
- love for the neighbour, charity and protection of life.
- health care that follows the existing practice, customs and means.
What does FSK N-U exactly?
The foundation wants to reinforce health care in Ukraine by sharing knowledge with Ukrainian colleagues in the profession in their own language. This is effectuated by:
1) translating Dutch NHG-standards into English and Russian. These standards, made by and meant for doctors contain guidelines supporting medical policy in everyday practice of the GP.
2) supporting the Ukrainian GPs in their profession from NGH standards. The training sessions are aimed at refresher courses and practical skills in which existing situation and instruments are the starting point. The training sessions have the same build-up as refresher courses in Holland, in which theory, epidemiology, casuistry and practise are dealt with.
An example
The First standard that was translated into Russian, is standard M09 Otitis media acuta (otitus with children). The standard gives guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of the disease. You find the standard and the translation in Documents.
After the standard had been translated GP Henk van Schothorst attended the first series of refresher courses in Zhytomir. These training sessions were focussed on consult, inter collegial cooperation and practical skills.
District doctors in Zhytomir go to university for one month for a refresher course once in five years. Henk van Schothorst attended the four hour training sessions four times for a total number of 58 Ukranian district doctors. At the end the participants received a certificate which is officially recognized by the city and province authorities.
