As previously reported, Estonia will send Ukraine more weapons and another field hospital and will assist in Ukrainian soldiers’ training.

In 2021, it was reported that Estonia is preparing the first Role II field hospital for Ukraine.

Role II field hospital provides more modern medical support in the field.

A field hospital is a key element in the provision of care to casualties in the event of hostilities.

The tasks of the field hospital are to identify, stabilize, and, if necessary, operate the victims before their delivery to the hospital.

Usually, this type of hospital includes: tents, containers, or, as a rule, both; outpatient department; several chambers.

Wards include isolation rooms and intensive care units.

The hospital also includes operating, pre-operative and post-operative departments, dental department, laboratory and radiological departments, support and administration of the hospital.
