Three Role 2 modular field hospitals (9 trucks and 6 trailers) and 6 Toyota Land Cruiser medical evacuation vehicles were delivered to Ukraine.

The Government of the Netherlands together with the Dutch manufacturing company "Hospitainer" handed over property and medical equipment to the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine.

It is worth emphasizing that the partners are constantly improving the equipment of mobile medical support complexes, taking into account the real conditions of their use. The mobile hospital modules provided this time (Role 2 E (expanded) for 36 hospital beds) are more suitable for use in Holon at the same time of the year, have expanded possibilities for the location of medical personnel and patients.

“This special purpose medical equipment has expanded functions, namely, an increase in the number of beds. Also, an important technical component is the inclusion of new air conditioners in this equipment, which have an active ventilation method, which was not the case in previous models. In addition, a new and important element is a block for medical personnel. And also, the improved mobile hospital can be used as a stabilization point, which is extremely important in the provision of medical care to preserve the golden hour of a patient's life”, says Dmytro Laitan, the head of a polyclinic at one of the hospitals of the State Border Service.

It is worth emphasizing that, in addition to this assistance, from July 2023, from the Government of the Netherlands and the company "Hospitainer", under the intergovernmental program to support the Defense Forces of Ukraine in terms of strengthening medical and evacuation support, through the Ministry of Defense of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (with the assistance of the Embassy of the country), the State Border Service of Ukraine received 18 Toyota Land Cruiser vehicles, 10 Role 1 modular field hospitals, 5 Role 2 modular field hospitals, 5 refrigerated vehicles, 1 dental module and almost 90 cubic meters of medical consumables.

“This time we delivered three upgraded Role 2 modular field hospitals, including more beds and a tent for personnel. Also, this Role includes a water supply system, including showers. We have improved the gateways, that is, transitions between tents have become more reliable and durable. In addition, in these modules, the water supply system is adapted to the winter period,” emphasized the representative of the "Hospitainer" company Bar-Dzhop Kruisen.
