Upgrading of the only French field hospital

Since April 3 and until April 8, civil security rescuers and Gard firefighters have taken over the Pont-du-Gard site. These 2 entities constitute the Escrim (Element of Civil Security Rapid Medical Intervention), in other words a field hospital projectable on the zones of conflicts (war, civil war) or natural disasters (floods, earthquake, earthquake) . A week of role-playing for the 95 fencing members which punctuates a 4-year work aimed at validating the certification of a level 2 “Emergency Medical Team” module by the WHO.

The Escrim is the only tool of its kind in France, it can accommodate 40 patients per day and operates independently for 15 days
