Upper limb prosthetics aims to restore lost hand functions and help patients return to their daily activities. In Ukraine, we utilize state-of-the-art solutions—ranging from cosmetic hand prostheses to bionic systems controlled by muscle signals.
We support patients at every stage—from consultation and fitting to training in the use of the prosthesis and ongoing maintenance.
Dental prosthetics are recommended for patients with:
Upper limb prosthetics in Ukraine may be provided free of charge under the state program for the provision of assistive devices.
The program is implemented in accordance with Resolution No. 321 of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine from 2012 and guarantees the right to receive prosthetics free of charge when medically indicated.
“Ukrainian Center for Rehabilitation and Prosthetics ‘ZDOROVIE’” participates in this program and provides a full range of prosthetics services—from processing paperwork to ensuring the patient’s full adaptation.
When obtaining a referral from the social protection authorities, it is necessary to specify our center, LLC “All-Ukrainian Center for Rehabilitation and Prosthetics ‘ZDOROVYA’”, as the facility where the prosthetic treatment will be provided.
This is recorded in the official documentation and affects the ability to undergo prosthetic treatment at the selected center.
The patient is entitled to free prosthetics under the state program for the provision of rehabilitation equipment.
Reasons:
Important:
The type of prosthesis is determined by the level of amputation and the patient’s functional needs.
Used in cases of hand loss. It enables precise movements, grasping objects, and working with small items.
Used for below-elbow amputation. It provides good functionality and control of movements.
Used in cases of shoulder-level amputation. It requires more complex configuration and may include bionic systems with multiple degrees of freedom.
It is one of the most advanced arm prostheses, developed using artificial intelligence.
Key features:
Advantages:
When can prosthetics fitting begin after amputation?
After the stump has healed and a doctor has given their conclusion. The timeframe depends on the condition of the tissues.
Can prosthetics fitting be done immediately after surgery?
No. It is necessary to wait for healing and formation of the stump.

Can I choose the center myself?
Yes. The patient independently chooses the facility that will carry out the prosthetics fitting.
What types of arm prostheses do you manufacture?
Mechanical and bionic upper limb prostheses.
Which prosthesis is better — mechanical or bionic?
The choice depends on the level of amputation, the patient’s activity level, and their needs.
Does the government cover bionic prostheses?
Yes, within the established funding limits and if there are medical indications.
How long does the prosthetics process take?
On average, 20–25 working days.
Is it necessary to come to the center?
Yes, for fittings and training. Free transportation or a specialist home visit is provided.
Is accommodation available during the prosthetics process?
Yes, accommodation and meals are provided free of charge.
Is rehabilitation available?
Yes. Training on how to use the prosthesis is part of the process and is provided free of charge.

Yes, especially with bionic prostheses.
How long does a prosthesis last?
The service life depends on the type and load; regular maintenance is required.
What should I do if the prosthesis causes irritation?
Contact the center for adjustment — this is a standard procedure.
Can the prosthesis be modified or replaced later?
Yes, if the patient’s condition or needs change.
What should I do if the prosthesis breaks?
Contact the center — repairs and servicing are carried out there.
