The facilities are sending medical supplies and equipment donations to the Embrace Foundation, which will repurpose the equipment and send the donations to the Samaritan’s Purse emergency field hospital in Lviv, Ukraine.

Saginaw, Mich.-based orthopedic surgeon Anthony de Bari, MD, is volunteering at the 58-bed field hospital, which includes an emergency room, an intensive care unit and two operating rooms.

A range of donations are being requested, from orthopedics to wound care and pharmaceutical products.  

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
