Agila proud sponsor of Mental Health Run

2016-10-07
On Saturday the 8th of October, Agila is one of the proud sponsors of this year's edition of "Mental Health Run". The 5 km race, which you run or walk, aims to increase openness and knowledge about mental illness. At 13:00, the start is at the Maritime History Museum out on Djurgården and through the race, the organizers want to counteract prejudices and make mental illness less shameful to talk about.

One of the key words of Mental Health Run is that everyone should be able to participate regardless of background, financial circumstances, illness or exercise habit. This is reflected in the fees and timekeeping is completely voluntary. In addition to the classes "woman" and "man", there is also "other gender". We hope for radiant sun and many participants in the race!

On January 11, Vårdassistans will change its brand to Agila. Simultaneously with the change, the company also launches a new website and moves into new and larger premises on Rosenlundsgatan in Stockholm.

"We change names to more clearly show our identity to our clients and consultants.

Now we have a strong brand that clearly shows who we are "says Nils Horn, one of the founders of Agila.

"Agila is a neutral and internationally viable name, which is in line with our expansion plans. The issue of brand change was raised in connection with last year's establishments of medical staff in Norway and socionom staffing in Sweden," says Henrik Ottemo, CEO of Agila.

Nursing Assistance collaborates with Doctors Without Borders

2015-10-21

Since its inception in 2008, care assistance has always donated parts of the company's surplus to charitable causes. We have previously told about our school project in Rwanda which we run together with Plan.

For 2016, we have chosen to also collaborate with MSF, which is a medical humanitarian organization that saves lives and alleviates distress where it is needed most. The organization assists people affected by crises, wars and natural disasters regardless of political opinion, religion or ethnicity.

Since May 2015, Médecins Sans Frontières has rescued more than 15,000 people in the Mediterranean, and today they are represented in the area by three rescue vessels containing equipment and medicines. Many who arrive in Southern Europe try to advance via the Balkans to Central and Northern Europe. Therefore, Médecins Sans Frontières has started several projects along this route.

Report from Rwanda

2015-08-17

For Vårdassistans, community involvement has always been an important issue. Since 2013, we have, among other things, supported Plan Sweden in their work to build and run preschools in Rwanda.

In the village of Nyaruguru, where the preschools have been built, "Day of the African child" was celebrated on 16 June. This is a day that since 1991 celebrates education and development for children and young people. This year, this day was celebrated by children, parents and leaders from the village gathering and celebrating together. The village mayor and other leaders in the district were given a tour of the premises and at the ceremony, all the children, to their great joy, each received a backpack and a water bottle.

The program manager for Plan Rwanda was on site and together with the mayor they talked about the benefits of letting the children go to preschool instead of working in the fields with the parents. Many parents were present and all agreed that it was a very successful gathering.

The care assistance's collaboration with Plan continues and the purpose of this is to continuously improve the children's conditions for an education.
