The Armenia Fund 7 delivered equipment, office and hygiene items to
the Stepanakert Policlinic.
The supply worth $464.779, packed in 920 boxes, was passed over to
the Stepanakert Policlinic through the Ministry of Health of Nagorno
Karabakh.
The initiative is sponsored by the Armenia Fund USA Eastern Affiliate.
As a consequence of the Artsakh conflict, the country was
devastated, and there was a pressing need for an up-to-date healthcare
institution. Through its East Coast Affiliate the Armenia Fund launched
on construction of Stepanakert Policlinic. In March 2006, a modern
building, equipped with a diagnostic center and necessary facilities
was in place. To ensure adequate medical service, the Fund also held
in-service medical staff and administrative personnel trainings.
"The necessary maintenance work in the policlinic is limited to
replacing door handles and broken glasses," the newly appointed
Executive Director Karine Atayan told the Fund working group visiting
the policlinic within the Project Condition Survey of the Armenia
Fund projects for 2002-2007. The visit coincided with the bothersome
time of lack of running water from the external network, but that had
not affected the hygiene and sanitary conditions of the clinic; the
management made sure that the policlinic water tanks were regularly
stocked up with water necessary to take care of the policlinic's needs.
According to Ms. Atayan, as of December 2007, 83,815 people underwent
general therapeutic treatment, 24,228 were screened and examined,
and 26,492 had laboratory tests. "I believe good conditions in a
medical institution are vital to the recovery of patients. It is more
important though, that the Karabakh residents feel confident about
the healthcare service in their country. With this in mind the Fund
also embarked on the renovation of the Hadrut Regional Hospital which
is to be completed in mid 2008," said Vahe Aghabegians, the executive
director of the Armenia Fund.
