Saudi Arabia’s King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center has rehabilitated the emergency and children’s departments at Al-Sadaqa General Teaching Hospital in Aden, Yemen.
KSRelief, in cooperation with the World Health Organization, provided necessary medical devices and equipment.
Qasim Buhaibeh, Yemeni health minister, commended KSrelief’s efforts in the health sector, and stressed the importance of this support in improving and developing health services provided to citizens, which will contribute to meeting the diagnostic and treatment needs of patients arriving at the hospital from a number of governorates across the country.
The hospital’s director Raja Al-Shuaibi said the rehabilitation will contribute to alleviating overcrowding at these departments, as they receive over 350 cases daily.
The emergency department currently has a capacity of 19 beds subject to increase, while the children’s department includes 27 beds, Al-Shuaibi said.
