Summary
In hard to reach, remote rural areas with no power or direct water supply and in humanitarian settings (natural disasters, i.e. flooding, earthquakes, conflicts), insufficient health facilities availability, lack of emergency medical transportation, violence, and insecurity result in barriers for timely access to emergency care for vulnerable populations. With the increase in the number of natural hazards, there is a widespread need for innovative solutions for good quality, cost-effective and timely health care in emergency situations. Current solutions face high costs for deployment (specialized personnel required), assembly, withdraw (20%-40% of medical equipment is abandoned) and redeployment.
Our mobile, rapid deployment model aims to provide “on demand” field hospital services (surgical, diagnostics, laboratory, general consultation services and trauma box) for citizens living in remote areas or humanitarian/emergency settings. The innovation of our fully autonomous mobile field hospital designed for rapid deployment stands in its autonomy (no need for supporting infrastructures thanks to the Service Container integating power supply, gas and liquid processing, waste management systems, and the Plug-and-Play set-up), ease of transportation (in its 40-feet high cube container, by road, rail, plane, boat), and rapid deployment (
