Orient Medical Emergency System, Syria
One of OHR’s main tasks is to provide the necessary emergency services, especially in the areas of northern Syria where air strikes are frequent. Thus, OHR has launched its “Orient Ambulance System”.
Orient Ambulance System is consisted of modern ambulances equipped with all the necessary equipment, and distributed to areas that are most vulnerable to shelling, and to areas of conflict between the Syrian regime and the opposition forces. The ambulance system provides first aid to the injured and ensures their delivery to the nearest medical center, which is often located on the Syrian-Turkish border.
Emergency Units
Ambulances are equipped with the necessary tools to provide adequate emergency services to the injured, including: respirator, simple surgical tools to stop patients’ bleeding, first aid kits, variety of drugs, injections and IV bags.
The emergency crew is consisted of:
General Surgeon
Emergency Medical Technicians (2-3)
Nurses (1-2)
Driver
The Targeting of the Ambulance System
OHR ambulance system has become one of the most important medical centers in the north of Syria. It is immediately requested after emergencies; it does not limit itself to war injuries, but rather serves all medical conditions requiring an ambulance and access to nearby hospitals, to save the lives of the injured civilians.
