'In less than 5 minutes we were at trauma room'

Senior MDA EMT, Rivka Or and MDA paramedic Pinhas Meir said: “When we arrived on the scene, we identified a 35 year old man lying on the sidewalk near the entrance to the central bus station in Jerusalem. He was partially conscious and was suffering from a stab wound to his upper body. We transmitted him onto a mobile intensive care unit in order to urgently transport him to a surgery room. On our way to Shaare Zedek Medical Center we continued to provide him with lifesaving medical treatment and in less than five minutes we were at the trauma room at the medical center. His condition was defined “severe.’
