Field Mobile First Line Hospital

A first-line mobile field hospital (MFHL) is a medical institution designed to provide emergency medical care to the wounded and sick in the field. Such hospitals were created during the First World War and during the Russian Civil War. They consisted of several departments: surgical, therapeutic, infectious. The GPPPL included doctors, nurses, orderlies, orderlies, paramedics, as well as technical workers such as cooks, laundresses, etc.

The GPPPL treated the wounded, sick and infectious patients, and also provided first aid. If necessary, the hospital could be relocated to a new location, which made it possible to quickly respond to changes in the situation at the front.

GPPPL were created in connection with the need to provide timely medical care and treatment of the wounded and sick in field conditions, where there were no inpatient medical facilities. These hospitals played an important role in the First World War and the Russian Civil War, saving many lives.

It is important to note that the GPPPL should not be confused with the first-line mobile surgical hospital, which was created during the Great Patriotic War and had a broader purpose.

The First Line Field Mobile Hospital served as an important link in the medical care of military personnel on the battlefield during the First World War. It was established in 1914 as a specialized treatment center designed to provide emergency care to wounded soldiers and officers. The hospital was located in the field, and its staff were ready to quickly transport wounded and sick soldiers to the front line.

One of the main priorities of the hospital was quick medical care for the wounded on the front line, which was necessary in conditions of chaotic battle and unstable rear. Doctors and nurses had to be ready to quickly respond to any injuries caused by gunshot wounds, shrapnel injuries, concussions, injuries from falling shells
