About EMERGENCY NGO ETS:

EMERGENCY has been working in Afghanistan since 1999. The first hospital was opened in Anabah, in the Panjshir Valley, in 1999 to provide surgical treatments to war victims. After 2001 and the shift in conflict dynamics, the hospital admission criteria have been re-assessed according to the population’s needs, and is now a general hospital providing surgical, paediatric, obstetrics, and gynaecological care.

To respond to the rising population needs caused by the shift in conflict dynamics, EMERGENCY opened the Surgical Centre for War Victims in Kabul in 2001 followed by the Surgical Centre for War Victims in Lashkar-Gah in 2004. Since the beginning of its activities in Afghanistan EMERGENCY has progressively created a network of First Aid Trauma Posts and Primary Health Clinics, connected to the hospitals.

EMERGENCY’s hospitals are the only free-of-charge specialized health facilities providing high-quality treatments for war-related patients.
