Children in Savusavu and neighboring communities now have access to better health facilities after the opening of the refurbished ANZ Children’s ward at the Savusavu Hospital.
While officially opening the newly refurbished Children’s ward, Minister for Health Rosy Akbar says the $11,000 project is a timely assistance as the children’s ward is one of the busiest wards at Savusavu Hospital.
The Health minister also highlighted that the Savusavu Hospital that was built way back in 1967 caters for a geographical capacity of over 35,055 people.
Akbar adds that on a daily basis the hospital attends to over 150 patients and the Children's ward contains 8 beds.
She had acknowledged the ANZ team for helping improve health services not just in Savusavu but also in Suva through the newly refurbished ANZ ward.
Akbar says the partnership with ANZ serves as a great inspiration that public private partnership has great potentials to unleash new opportunities to deliver efficient and sustainable health services, for the Fijian people.
