The duty station of the ambulance will be the Hayfa Charity Hospital, which serves 7,000 patients each month. The ambulance that has been handed over will be serving approximately 500 patients each month. Muslim Charity has been working with the Hayfa Charity Hospital for many years through provision of life-saving medical aid and medicines at times of dire need.
The catchment area of the hospital is the Eastern side of Gaza which has a population of 200,000. This area is one of the most poverty-stricken areas of Gaza with high rates of poverty, unemployment and malnutrition.
Muslim Charity has been working in Gaza since 2013. Having partnered with UNRWA, we have had unparalleled access to Gaza whenever there has been an emergency. During the 2014 Gaza war, Muslim Charity was amongst the first to respond to the crisis and provided urgent medical assistance to the Hayfa and Al-Shifa hospitals.
