Kuwait outlines US $3.1bn new hospitals plan


Kuwait has unveiled more details of its plan to build eight new hospitals, worth an estimated US $3.1 billion (KD1.2 billion).

The construction work will be divided into three phases, with the first phase being concentrated on the Al Jahra hospitals, with a focus on childbirth facilities.

Minister of Public Works and Minister of State for Municipals Affairs Fadhel Safar said that a tender for this phase had already been won, but that the announcement of the winner was subject to signing off on the consultation agreement, according to the KUNA news agency.

The second phase will concentrate on the Amiri and Al Adaan hospitals, while the third phase will focus on the Sabah health area, “which will include buildings near Al-Razi, natural therapy, Ibin Sina and children hospitals”.

Safar indicated that around 500 beds would be added to the current total, and said that all hospitals are expected to begin operating between 2015 and 2016.
