Hayastan All Armenian Fund has completed two crucially important
projects in Hadrut region: renovation and furnishing of the regional
hospital and construction of the Togh-Hadrut gas pipeline.
Built in 1982, Hadrut regional hospital was in poor condition and
did not meet the requirements of the modern healthcare industry. It
was essential to get the hospital better serve the medical needs of
the region of around 12,000. The overall project included renovation
of the walls and roof, floors and ceiling; doors and windows were
replaced making wards in the hospital brighter and comfortable to
stay in. Water and electricity supply networks, as well as heating
and sewage systems were renovated too.
To avoid possible spreading of contagious diseases, a separate entrance
was constructed for the infectious diseases' unit. To make medical
care more diversified and service-oriented, the Fund donated to the
hospital four brand new emergency vehicles equipped with adequate
medical facilities. One of the vehicles was provided to the medical
post of Togh village located about 20 km from the hospital.
On behalf of the hospital management and residents of Hadrut region
Araik Yeremyan, head of the hospital, thanked the Fund for the
important initiative and good quality work. He said he believes
that patients will feel safe comfortable and in the newly renovated
hospital, which in its turn, will make things easier for the medical
staff. According to Mr. Yeremyan, there is a great need for qualified
specialists. This problem is partially solved by conducting training
courses at the hospital.
Ministry of Health of Nagorno Karabakh encourages initiatives on
trainings and conducts open-door days on which patients undergo free
medical check-ups.
The 22 km long Togh-Hadrut gas pipeline will soon be commissioned
too. The newly built hospital, as well as the nearby 7 villages with
around 5200 residents, will be supplied with long-awaited gas. The
project, with the total cost of AMD 444 million, was undertaken within
the Artsakh Rebirth project.
According to the Fund's deputy director, responsible for construction
works, Mr. Ararat Khlghatyan, the pipeline construction was going on
in challenging landscape conditions. The working staff overcame all the
obstacles though, and currently, the pipe is being tested for safety.
"When the Fund launches a project, it consistently implements
other projects in the same community as well - be it a hospital
reconstruction, school or water main construction. By this, the Fund
aims to contribute to the overall development of the community. This
is the policy the Hayastan All Armenian Fund pursues", says the acting
executive director of the Fund Mr. Ara Vardanyan.
