<\/figure>\n\n\n\nFor a full day and night, the teams worked relentlessly, sometimes under the sound of sirens, while their families at home coped with fear and uncertainty. \u201cMy wife and kids know that there are moments when the mission comes before everything else,\u201d Gil admits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sharon, who oversees all facility management at the hospital – electricity, HVAC, water systems, plumbing, medical gases, and elevators\u2014doesn’t see his work as merely technical maintenance. “A patient coming to the hospital should receive the very best\u2014no dripping air conditioners, no flickering lights, operating rooms with complex systems that function with zero failures, proper water systems, working television, and painted walls,” he says. “This isn’t perfectionism, but a deep understanding that recovery is not only medical but also psychological. These small details can make the difference between hope and despair.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By Friday morning, the new ward was ready, right on schedule. The first patients were relocated into a fully functional, safe, and equipped space. Every system was operational, every detail in place. Exhausted but proud, the team received the hospital\u2019s first thank-you call\u2014a few heartfelt words that summed up 24 hours of sacrifice and determination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shai Shriki, Head of Operations at Assuta, later sent an emotional letter to Avi Matzliach. In it, he stressed that this was not just another project, but a living testament to shared values. \u201cBeyond contracts and agreements, this is a true partnership that is tested when lives are at stake,\u201d he wrote. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The story of Assuta\u2019s emergency ward is not only a technical achievement. It is the embodiment of an organizational culture that puts mission first. Electra FM\u2019s teams acted with unwavering commitment to saving lives. The knowledge gained here is already being shared across projects, becoming an integral part of the company\u2019s DNA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Gil\u2019s takeaway message to other facility management providers in critical institutions is straightforward: \u201cYou must maintain the highest standards of maintenance and operational routines. In a world where lives depend on systems functioning flawlessly, there is no room for compromise.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n For the employees who took part in this effort, it was neither the first nor the last time they would be asked to rise above themselves. In today\u2019s reality, where emergencies have become routine, the ability to respond swiftly and effectively is as essential as day-to-day professionalism. In an era of uncertainty and ever-emerging challenges, the story of Electra FM\u2019s Maintenance Division at Assuta reminds us that people and organizations are willing to do whatever it takes to keep life going, health protected, and the light burning – even in the darkest hours.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" During the \u201cAm Kelavi\u201d war, a team of electricians from Electra FM’s maintenance division was urgently called to establish two emergency departments in the basement of Assuta Ashdod Hospital.

The teams worked continuously and installed complete vital infrastructure systems – complex electrical systems, adapted air conditioning, medical gases, communications, and safety systems.

Above all, this is the story of people who see their work as a calling\u2014who understand that behind every technical system are real lives. When they do their jobs right, they are partners in the most important mission of all: saving lives and preserving hope. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
