Before the full-scale invasion, 26-year-old anesthesiologist Roman Shtibel worked in the pediatric intensive care unit of the Ivano-Frankivsk regional hospital. Last summer, he went to volunteer in the medical battalion "Hospitaliers". Nowadays, he spends a month saving the wounded at the front, and a month saving newborns in the hospital of his hometown.
"We need to create such a quality of medicine that every Ukrainian, even if he was born with a weight of 500 grams, would be raised like a flower," says Roman.
After the full-scale invasion, his brother and dad also went to war - there were no options to run or wait. Roman has a very patriotic family, he is a member of Plast and knew from an early age that he had to fight for his country.
Roman rescued the wounded in all hot areas. During heavy battles in Bakhmut, he sometimes did not sleep for three days.
We filmed Roman at work in the pediatric intensive care unit and drove with him to the front. They watched how the medics set up their field hospital and how the wounded are taken away from the battlefield.
