The first community emergency center (CEC) in Israel was established in 1988 in Jerusalem. It provided medical services after health fund clinic working hours, in a primary care facility, by primary care physicians. In the past 5 years Israel has witnessed growth in this method of health care delivery and more than 20 such centers have been established throughout the country. We describe a CEC in a small town, and its function and its integration within the regional medical services. 2 retrospective studies examined 3 aspects of the CEC: patient profiles including age, sex, and major diagnoses, use of specific services; and referrals to the emergency room.
以色列的首个社区急救中心(CEC)于1988年在耶路撒冷成立。它在健康基金诊所工作时间之外,由初级保健医生在初级保健机构提供医疗服务。在过去5年里,以色列见证了这种医疗服务提供方式的增长,全国已建立了20多个此类中心。我们描述了一个小镇上的社区急救中心,及其功能以及在区域医疗服务中的整合情况。两项回顾性研究考察了社区急救中心的三个方面:患者资料,包括年龄、性别和主要诊断;特定服务的使用情况;以及转诊至急诊室的情况。
