Ensuring access to basic health services remains a priority for local communities living in the Area C of the West Bank, with more than 170 communities lacking access to a regular health clinic. For many residents, the nearest medical facility is a long distance away and often requires significant detours around Israeli settlements, roads and barriers.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n
\n
\n

Not only is this really stressful for the patients and their families, but also a major financial burden for poor households, especially for families caring for people with disabilities or chronically ill family members.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The project aims to ensure the functioning and development of mobile clinics to maintain uninterrupted access to healthcare for the communities worst affected by the humanitarian crisis in the West Bank, where living conditions worsened significantly in the aftermath of 7 October 2023.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Polish Humanitarian Action joined forces with its local partner \u2013 the Palestinian Medical Relief Society \u2013 to conduct a project aimed at improving access to and quality of medical services by setting up mobile clinics that reach the most remote areas of Area C. Doctors and emergency medical teams offer basic medical care, perform tests and, in more serious cases, refer patients to the appropriate departments of larger healthcare centres.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The project also includes first aid training and activities aimed at raising awareness of health and disease prevention.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In addition, this year we are running a scholarship programme for aspiring female healthcare professionals. Three medical students will receive support with their tuition fees, as well as mentoring and on-the-job training. They will join the mobile teams as volunteers for the duration of their studies, and after graduation they will have the opportunity to work with the mobile teams as full-time employees.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As part of the programme, three medical centres will also be renovated and adapted to the needs of women, girls and people with disabilities in 2026. They will also receive modern equipment to treat chronic diseases and to care for women before, during, and after pregnancy.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In total, 15,000 – 13,000 people will receive support.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n
