Taking patients to and from different treatments, including radiation and chemo-therapy, physiotherapy and rehabilitationary treatments, visits to specialists, transfers from one medical center to another when necessary. These trips are mostly planned and carried out by appointment at the organization's ambulance order center.

Transfer of critically ill patients from one medical center to another, and     whenever necessary to fly them abroad (or whenever a patient is returned from abroad, following an accident or illness, etc.). This catergory also includes the transfer of premature babies in incubators for medical treatment. In such cases, a medical team including a doctor, a nurse or a paramedic, accompanies the patient, andthe ambulance is equipped with a complete IC kit. These trips are not always pre-planned, which calls for immediate  alignment and real-time response. In addition, our volunteers are alerted by  MDA in cases of emergency (as part of their volunteer work in "Hatzolah"), when often they play a role in saving lives.

Patients need a lot of encouragement and support, which promotes their     speedy recovery. For this reason, we also arrange for their transportation to family events, which their physical condition prevents them from joining. We  even take them for short trips to take a breath of fresh air and replace the grim     atmosphere which surrounds them. Their joyful expressions testify to the great benefit of these outings, which sometimes contribute more to their recovery than many medical treatments. Included in this category are also occasions which call for the accompaniment of ambulances, such as special events for sick children, within the framework of the Home Treatment for Children with     Cancer.
