The conversion of The Big Heart Secondary School for the hearing impaired in the Palestinian city of Qalqilya in the West Bank, into a quarantine centre for residents in the area who are showing symptoms and have tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.

The TBHF school management in cooperation with Municipality of Qaliqyla, Palestine and Qalqilya Governate Health Directorate, have fully prepared the school by securing beds for patients, and taken all required safety and precautionary measures to separate confirmed from suspected cases, ensuring the best possible care is offered to all who come into this makeshift medical facility.
