More than 100,000 people here and in nearby districts will enjoy better healthcare facilities and services once a project to upgrade Papar Hospital is completed by end of this year.
Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa said progress of the federal-funded RM98.5 million is 62 per cent, which is behind schedule. She said the project awarded in May 2017 experienced delays due to the shortage of manpower and construction materials, in addition to the outbreak of Covid-19.
“The upgrading project involves the construction of wards and addition of 84 hospital beds for the paediatric ward as well as women and children’s wards. “Besides this, services provided include emergency and trauma, X-ray, satellite pharmacy, operation theatres, offices and other facilities needed by local residents.
