As a result, hospitals across the country have restructured their operations and relocated patients underground to maintain functionality amidst ongoing attacks. This move is not only necessary for patient safety but also highlights the evolving nature of healthcare in times of conflict.\n\nThe Israeli Health Ministry reported that since the start of hostilities on Saturday morning, 777 people have been evacuated to hospitals nationwide. At least ten individuals were killed directly by Iranian missile attacks on Israel, with two more dying en route to shelters. These tragic losses underscore the urgency and importance of these relocation efforts.\n\nProfessor Efrat Bron-Harlev, CEO of Schneider Children&#8217;s Medical Center, shared her perspective on this new reality: &#8220;This is not just a hospital \u2013 it\u2019s his home.&#8221; She was referring to one young patient who has been living in the underground area while waiting for a heart transplant. This child and 119 others have moved together as part of these emergency measures.\n\nThe greater challenge, according to Bron-Harlev, is continuing to care for all existing patients amidst ongoing missile sirens across the country. All patients at Schneider Children&#8217;s Medical Center have been relocated to level minus one, where they can seek refuge behind heavy doors of reinforced areas if needed.\n\nThis situation highlights the need for hospitals worldwide to consider how best to prepare for potential conflicts and emergencies that may disrupt normal operations. It also serves as a reminder of the resilience displayed by healthcare workers during times of crisis \u2013 adapting quickly to new circumstances while still providing life-saving care to those who need it most.\n\nIn conclusion, the shift of critical care underground in Israeli hospitals is not only a response to immediate threats but also an indication of what could become the new normal for medical facilities globally. As conflicts continue to evolve and escalate, healthcare systems must adapt accordingly to ensure patient safety and continued access to essential services during times of crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Source:<\/strong>  [Original Article](https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/missiles-above-newborns-below-israeli-hospitals-shift-critical-care-underground)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>#missiles<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out my AI projects on <a href='https:\/\/huggingface.co\/ghostail'>Hugging Face<\/a>, join our community on <a href='https:\/\/discord.com\/invite\/zgKZUJ6V8z'>Discord<\/a>, and explore my services at <a href='https:\/\/ghostai.pro'>GhostAI<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Title: The New Normal: Israeli Hospitals Shift Critical Care Underground Amidst Missile Attacks In recent days, Israel has been bracing itself for missile retaliation from Tehran following the joint Israeli-U.S. war against Iran.
