Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, patients who have undergone various operations in medical facilities urgently require Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to ensure their safety.
Taghyeer launched a project as an urgent response to the need for safety equipment. The Green Land Society for Health Development (GLSHD) manages the treatment of Palestinian patients that have been referred to Israeli hospitals by the Ministry of Health through a network of volunteers coordinating their mobility and transfers. Together, Taghyeer and GLSHD launched a project to provide PPE to medical care recipients, focused on chronically ill patients who suffer from chronic diseases such as cancer, kidney failure, and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
The project provided PPE, including masks, gloves, hand sanitizers, infrared thermometers, and hazard suits, to 110 patients and volunteers who provided transportation, assistance in crossing checkpoints and procurement of medical permits for movement during quarantine and lockdown.
The project embraced the partnership between Taghyeer and GLSHD and allows for future collaborative opportunities.
