The Life Saving Center Charitable Foundation, supported by the Esculab laboratory network and the Osseointegration Prosthetics Association, plans to build the TYTANOVI Rehabilitation Center for military personnel in Kyiv.

According to the foundation's press release, the center, designed to accommodate 30 patients simultaneously, will include a modern walking laboratory, a combat hall, a cardio training zone, a strength training zone, two rooms for hardware physiotherapy, a meditation and sleep hall, and a dental office.
