The Government of Ajara is starting the construction and rehabilitation of 3 Important Medical Facilities
At the meeting of the Government
of Ajara, the Chairman of the Government, Tornike Rijvadze, announced the
construction and rehabilitation of 3 important state-owned medical facilities.
The regional tuberculosis center
in Ajara, the Batumi N1 polyclinic and the Batumi Emergency Coordination and
Emergency Aid Center will have new buildings in the near future.
The building of Batumi N1
polyclinic does not meet the established standards. With the rehabilitation of
the mentioned building, the medical services of more than 50,000 patients will
be improved, and the population will be able to receive outpatient, emergency and
stationary services in one space.
In the same building, in a
modern/renovated space, the Batumi Center for Coordination of Emergency
Situations and Emergency Assistance will be located. By moving the emergency
medical center to a new building, the working conditions of 160 people employed
in the institution will be improved.
Also, the current TB building was
built decades ago and does not meet the standards required to provide
comprehensive services. By moving the tuberculosis center to the premises of
the infectious disease hospital, the quality of patient services will be
significantly improved.
