    THE ARMENIAN NATIONAL SANATORIUM OF AZOUNIEH
    CONTINUES TO CARRY OUT ITS MISSION


    The board of trustees of the Armenian National Sanatorium started during the
    last few months to introduce reforms to improve the living conditions and
    medical care of the sanatorium's patients.



    The board kept its good relations with the institutions supporting the
    sanatorium. Simultaneously, it sought the support of the Ministry of Health
    and charity organizations in order to carry out the reforms. The medical
    team and staff of the sanatorium were revised and reformed.



    The Armenian National Sanatorium in Azounieh functions under the patronage
    of the Armenian Apostolic and Evangelical Churches and is constantly the
    center of attention of the heads of both churches, His Holiness Aram I and
    Reverend Megerditch Karageozian. Since 1929 the institution has provided
    shelter for needy Armenian patients. It is one of the best examples of the
    social services carried out by the church.



    The financial donations and the gifts that were offered to the sanatorium
    were uplifting for both the board of trustees and the patients. In light of
    the sanatorium's needs, however, all Armenians are expected to contribute to
    the efforts of sustaining the institution.
