When talking about a hospital, the word “field” always comes to mind. These hospitals have been around for a long time and are designed to help wounded soldiers and military doctors in combat conditions. They can be located not only in military camps, but also, for example, during the Second World War, right in the trenches. This is caused not only by the need to be mobile - sometimes there is simply nowhere to turn around, and this option turns out to be the optimal one. Today, military medics have more and more demands to consider when working in the field.
