Rehabilitation in Times of Conflict

The emergency response chain and acute treatment of severely injured patients are ensured in peacetime through the establishment of the DGU trauma network and the three-tiered DGUV system for managing work-related and commuting accidents. However, could the rehabilitation of military and civilian victims be provided in the event of war if there is already a ‘rehabilitation gap’ in the treatment of seriously injured persons in peacetime? Using Ukraine as a case study, you will learn what efforts are essential to ensure a seamless, phase-specific, and cross-sector rehabilitation process that preserves both military readiness and societal resilience.
