Help Gazan’s access healthcare and medical aid at the SWAN Gaza Hospital with Jaheda

Dear Friends,

The situation in Gaza is dire. Since October 2023, more than 36,000 Palestinians have lost their lives, and over 70,000 have been injured. The need for medical care is overwhelming. Hundreds of thousands are in desperate need of surgical, medical, and mental health support. Many are suffering from severe injuries, amputations, chronic conditions, and the trauma of witnessing unimaginable destruction, loss, and displacement.Gaza’s health system is on the brink of collapse.

Out of 36 hospitals, only 12 are even partially functional. Despite this, the dedicated medical staff continue to work tirelessly, treating patients with severely limited access to supplies and equipment.In response to this crisis, SWAN, led by our international coordinator Salam Aldeen and supported by WHO and healthcare professionals in Gaza, has secured premises in Khan Younis to establish a much-needed SWAN FIELD HOSPITAL. This facility is being expanded and will soon provide critical medical services to those in urgent need.

Help Us Expand the SWAN Field Hospital: Delivering Life-Saving Care in Gaza

The SWAN Field Hospital is a lifeline for the people of Gaza, where ongoing conflict has devastated healthcare infrastructure. Situated between Khan Younis and Deir al-Balah, near the sea, our hospital, named Hope Medical Point, provides essential care to a region where no other hospitals are operational.

Since its establishment in May 2024, this facility has been offering rapid, life-saving treatments to thousands of patients facing trauma, disease, and emergencies. The hospital focuses on acute care and trauma treatment, serving a population in urgent need of medical attention. Our dedicated team of 10 doctors, 15 nurses, and support staff work tirelessly, often with limited resources, to provide care 24/7.

What We Do: Saving Lives Every Day

Despite challenges, the SWAN Field Hospital has been able to provide a wide range of services, including treatment for infections, chronic conditions, wound care, and support for pregnant women, children, and those suffering from respiratory and urinary tract infections.

We have 8 treatment rooms and a pharmacy, but the demand for specialized services is growing. Hundreds of patients rely on us every day, and we are quickly outgrowing our capacity.
