By turning underground parking into surgeries, chambers and shelters, hospitals in Israel continue to operate and try to protect patients and staff, while not interrupting medical services.
Speaking from a hospital on the outskirts of Tel Aviv, Ninetta Amario, a hematologist at the Sheba Medical Center, describes ERT the situation in the country in recent days, especially after the Iranian blow to Soroka Hospital in Ber Seva, with at least 70 injuries.
“Hospitals have been very systematically organized. All underground parking lots have been converted into shelters and treatment areas. Patients are protected, “he says.
According to her, all parts of the hospital – from pediatrics to neurological – have been transferred to the basements, with the aim of safety of patients. The huge underground parking lots of hospitals have now turned into rough but organized medical units, even performing surgeries.
However, she stresses that the job under these conditions is not easy. The transfer of specialized departments, such as that of cancer patients, to improvised underground structures is a huge challenge for medical staff.
But despite the difficulties, staff remain in their positions. “Patients do not stop, diagnostics do not stop, tests do not stop,” the doctor points out.
