Além disso, a equipe médica especializada é composta por médicos, enfermeiros e técnicos de saúde, todos preparados para realizar resgates em situações difíceis.

Os fuzileiros navais também estão presentes para garantir a segurança e o apoio logístico necessário para o funcionamento do hospital de campanha.

Com a capacidade de realizar até 150 atendimentos por dia, a estrutura brasileira está desempenhando um papel crucial no auxílio às vítimas do terremoto na região.

The director of the Navy’s Expeditionary Medical Unit (Umem), Captain Marisa Martins, reported that the team includes a surgeon, anesthetist, orthopedist, pediatrician, intensivist, clinicians, and nursing professionals.

Team can also operate in difficult-to-access rescues

According to Marisa Martins, part of the nursing team is prepared for rescues in difficult-to-access areas, should there be a need for such support.

The Navy also sent the Immediate Response Force to Environmental Disasters (Frida) and marines to the region.
