Modern ambulance for Herta

In future, the hospital in Herta will be able to transport its patients in a modern, well-equipped ambulance. The vehicle was handed over on site last week by Swedish St. John Ambulance in cooperation with “Mission Siret”. Generous donors had financed the car, while the Swedish ambulance service “Hjärtsäkra” and the central hospital in Kristianstad provided the medical equipment. Volunteer Gabriel Rappe and the chairman of the Johanniterhjälpen in Sweden, Axel Lagerbielke, drove the ambulance on a tour of around 2000 km to Siret, from where the car went on to Herta, where it was taken over by hospital director Andriescu Corneliu.

The Swedish Johanniter had been volunteering at “Mission Siret” for almost two weeks with a total of ten members of the Order and had also brought 10 tons of relief supplies with them. The food, medicines and clothing are now being distributed directly by “Mission Siret” or by partner organizations to those in need in Ukraine.
