In support of healthcare services in Gaza Strip, Qatar Charity (QC) provided a kidney dialysis machine to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip in cooperation with the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
The measure came in light of the inability of the hospital to meet the needs of emergency cases including kidney dialysis and artificial respiration.
The machine, which has been provided at a cost of about QR150,000, benefits around 30 patients per month.
The project also helps reduce the cost of transporting patients from the Indonesian Hospital to other hospitals with dialysis facility.
The project aims to facilitate dialysis in the ICU of the Indonesian Hospital, said Eng. Mohammed Abu Halub, director of QC’s office in the Gaza Strip, emphasising that this apparatus came according to the emergency needs of the Ministry of Health.
Dr.Shawqi Salem, director of the Indonesian Hospital, thanked the benefactors in Qatar for their continued generous donations, which contribute to the support of the hospital and the provision of urgent needs in order to serve the critical patients, pointing out that the dialysis machine will alleviate the suffering of patients resulting from their mobility between governorates.
In the beginning of this year, QC’s office in the Gaza Strip implemented a project to improve the services of the surgical department at the Indonesian Hospital of the Gaza Strip by proving Harmonic Scalpel, a surgical instrument, in cooperation with the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
More than 350,000 residents of the northern Gaza Strip benefit from the services provided under the project, at a total cost of more than QR182,000. It results in reducing the waiting lists of patients, as they used to wait longer on the queue to receive healthcare services due to the lack of the advanced surgical instrument, exposing them to the risk of complications and the deteriorating their health condition.
The health sector of the Gaza Strip receives special attention from QC, especially in light of the siege, the shortage of medicines and medical consumables, and the worsening suffering of patients. The volume of support for this sector in the last six years has amounted to more than QR65mn.
