The State of Israel controlled a protective security zone in southern Lebanon from 1982 until May 2000, when the Israel Defense Forces (I.D.F.) evacuated this area within two days. Officers and soldiers of the South Lebanese Army, a local militia, which had formerly cooperated with the I.D.F., chose to come to Israel with their families. The provision for the health needs of this displaced population of over 5,861 persons was coordinated by the Northern Region Health Office of the Ministry of Health.
To describe the deployment and provision of health care for this displaced population and to present the lessons learned.
Data was collected from interviews with the personnel most actively involved in the decisions and execution of the enterprise, as well as from relevant documents.
The main health needs of the displaced South Lebanese were related to anxiety, outbreak of chickenpox, dental problems and provision of medical equipment for the disabled.
The experience accrued by the Northern Region Health Office over the years in provision of care to displaced populations at short notice was implemented. Cooperation within the health sector and between the health services and the military and defense forces was invaluable and essential to deal successfully with this unusual situation.

描述为这些流离失所者提供医疗服务的部署和情况，并介绍所吸取的经验教训。
通过与最积极参与该行动决策和执行的人员进行访谈以及查阅相关文件来收集数据。
流离失所的黎巴嫩南部人的主要医疗需求与焦虑、水痘爆发、牙齿问题以及为残疾人提供医疗设备有关。
北部地区卫生办公室多年来在短时间内为流离失所者提供护理方面积累的经验得到了应用。卫生部门内部以及卫生服务机构与军事和国防部队之间的合作非常宝贵且至关重要，对于成功应对这种特殊情况必不可少。
