Through ECHO’s support, the programme helps ensure timely access to life- and limb-saving hospital care for vulnerable patients, including those wounded during the conflict, while strengthening hospitals’ capacity to deliver essential emergency and trauma services.

🚭 Safe care means protecting everyone from preventable harm. Many people in Lebanon use more than one tobacco product, including cigarettes and arguileh. At the same time, exposure to second-hand smoke remains high, whether at home and in public spaces.

الأشخاص اللي عاشوا تجارب مرتبطة بصحتن النفسية عندن معرفة نابعة من اللي عاشوه، ومن التحدّيات اللي واجهوها ومن تجاربن مع الرعاية والدعم. وجهات نظرهم المتنوّعة أساسية لتكون خدمات الصحة النفسية أسهل للوصول، وأكثر استجابة للاحتياجات، ومتمحورة حول الأشخاص. @NMHPLebanon @WHOEMRO

Smoking often starts young and can continue for decades, increasing the risk of serious #NCDs. Preventing tobacco use, supporting people to quit and reducing exposure to tobacco are essential steps towards safer, healthier lives. World Patient Safety Day 2026: Safe care for life!
