PMM Vasco Emergency Team
The inception of the PMM Vasco Emergency Team
In March 2022, Vasco and the Polish Medical Mission collaborated to establish the PMM Vasco Emergency Team. Its primary objective is to swiftly reach locations impacted by natural disasters or humanitarian crises, responding within 24–48 hours.
We have brought this project to life by teaming up with the Polish Medical Mission, an organization that provided medical help all around the world since 1999. At Vasco, we share some similar goals, as our mission revolves around facilitating communication and breaking language barriers to help people effectively.
Furthermore, our CEO, Maciej Góralski, possesses a background as an educated paramedic with valuable professional experience in this domain. His passion to aid those in need of medical assistance has driven Vasco to initiate collaboration with the Polish Medical Mission.
Our Activities
Working hand in hand with the Polish Medical Mission, we strive to find better ways to reach people hit by humanitarian crises and natural disasters. That ongoing commitment drives our support for the PMM Emergency Team.
Vasco provided the initial financial backing for the team, covering equipment procurement and daily operational costs. The company also supplies warehousing and transport, whilst volunteers rely on Vasco Translators during humanitarian missions.
What is PMM Vasco Emergency Team?
The PMM Emergency Team is a rapid-response unit providing vital aid to those caught up in natural disasters and humanitarian crises when local emergency and healthcare services are overwhelmed or unable to act swiftly.
Comprising doctors, paramedics, nurses, psychologists, and security and logistics experts, the team operates with independent equipment and supplies. Personnel regularly participate in medical and non-medical training programmes, continually refining the skills needed for crisis response and international deployment.
In addition to that, the Team is being accredited by the World Health Organization.
How do they work?
Vasco focuses on maintaining open-mindedness, compassion, and continually exploring innovative ways to help people. As a result, the PMM Vasco Emergency Team have been created to take our mission even further.
The training of the Team will be financed by Vasco to ensure they are highly skilled and prepared to face the challenges of their medical missions. In addition to that, the Polish Medical Mission will share their extensive experience with the Team, so it's best prepared for the missions.
Besides the mentioned objectives, the Team also impacts the world around us by sharing their expertise with local medical authorities in Ukraine, Jordan, and Iraq.
Our goal is to assemble a Team of positive, motivated, and outgoing individuals who are eager to help others. We firmly believe that together, we can provide prompt assistance in areas where local authorities may be unable to act.
