SOMERSWORTH HCA Healthcare will close an occupational care facility and two area walk-in clinics associated with Frisbie Memorial Hospital at noon May 14.
Services currently provided at Seacoast Redicare, an occupational care office on High Street in Somersworth, will be transitioned to Portsmouth Regional Hospital to ensure “uninterrupted access to these critical services in the community,” HCA representatives said in a statement. HCA is the parent company of both Frisbie, located in Rochester, and Portsmouth Regional Hospital.
Barrington Walk-In Care in Barrington and White Mountain Medical Center Walk-In Care in Sanbornville are the walk-in clinics that will close. HCA representatives stressed the family care practices co-located at those locations will continue despite the walk-in clinic closures.
QRCS sponsors major thoracic surgeries in Gaza [EN/AR]
Format
January 3rd, 2021 ― Doha: Dr. Raed Al-Arini, the thoracic surgery consultant hired by Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) in Gaza, together with Dr. Diego González-Rivas, a globally renowned thoracic surgery specialist, and Dr. Firas Abu Akir, Head of Thoracic Surgery and Endoscopy Department at the Al-Makassed Hospital in Jerusalem, performed six sophisticated operations at the Al-Shefaa Medical Comlex.
These operations included the removal of pulmonary tumors and right superior lobectomy using new technologies for the first time in Gaza.
Dr. Al-Arini said the medical intervention done with the help of Prof. González-Rivas involved surgeries that had never been performed in Gaza, amid the blockade and closure of crossings, which prevented the travel of critical cases for treatment abroad.
