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.
