Targeting Atmeh Hospital
The following clinics were operated at the Hospital
Atmeh Surgical Hospital was completely funded by Orient for Human Relief and continued to operate until 11/2014. Afterwards Orient shifted its focus to the areas where IDPs are most clustered in Syria by establishing the “Orient Medical Assembly” in Idleb City, and four other medical centers scattered throughout Idleb countryside. These medical centers allow the people in need to get the medical attention they require without enduring the hardships of long and unsafe travel to the Turkish-Syrian borders.
