The pediatric isolation hospital reopened in Stepanakert yesterday. It
was built in 1996 and was to be changed into a republican hospital in
2002. But hospital was not operating normally because of lack of
necessary devices and the bad state of the building.
American-Armenians Caroline and George Najarian (Boston) and Albert
Ara Manukian (Los Angeles) financed hospital's rebuilding
project. Samvel Hakobian, a businessman from Artsakh also supported
the project. This was perhaps the first case when a local joined
Diaspora Armenians in rebuilding Artsakh.
President of Artsakh Arkady Ghukasian noted at the hospital's opening
ceremony that Samvel Hakobian set a good example for other
businessmen. Referring to the problems that health services of Artsakh
face, President Ghukasian said that the authorities make every effort
to solve all the problems in the sphere within short period. Arkady
Ghukasian mentioned the new hospital which us currently being built as
well as the gynecological clinic opened in Stepanakert.
