Nikos Economopoulos
Rudo orthopedic clinic for war victims.
This rehabilitation center hosts about 200 handicapped war victims, both soldiers and civilians. Most of them are injured as result of stepping on mines. The soldiers are either Serbian volunteers who fought in Bosnia, or Bosnian Serbs who were transferred to Belgrade for treatment. They stay in Rudo for approximately 6 months, and many of them will have to learn how to function with artificial limbs. Some of the war patients also receive psychiatric help, as about 40 patients have lost all of their relatives during the war in Bosnia.
