KUWAIT CITY, May 23: In a move aimed at expanding specialized healthcare services and enhancing accessibility to integrated health facilities, Dr. Ahmed Al-Awadhi, Minister of Health, has issued a ministerial decision mandating the establishment of a neurosurgery department at Jaber Hospital.
Under the same initiative, another decision has been issued appointing Dr. Tariq Al-Sheikh as the head of this newly established department, with both decisions set to take effect immediately.
The ministerial decree by the Minister of Health reflects the Ministry's commitment to its strategic plans aimed at bolstering healthcare provisions across the country. These plans prioritize the delivery of high-quality healthcare services in all governorates, considering population distribution, geographical coverage, and the need for streamlined access to medical services, thereby reducing wait times and ensuring prompt appointment scheduling.
