    Hayastan All-Armenian Fund Renovates St.Virgin Medical Center Obstetrics
    Department

    Yerevan, April 21, 2009 - Hayastan All-Armenian Fund has launched
    reconstruction of the obstetrics department of the Yerevan St.Virgin Medical
    Center south-western branch: a new delivery facility will be built while the
    three current ones will be renovated. The initiative is sponsored by the
    Hayastan Fund Great Britain Affiliate.

    "The Fund's Great Britain local committee has been implementing a wide range
    of health projects in various hospitals during the last couple of years. A
    good example of this is the full renovation of the Artik hospital, as well
    as several renovation projects carried out in Yerevan Kanaker-Zeitun
    hospital," the Hayastan All Armenian Fund acting executive director Ara
    Vardanyan pointed out.

    Within the project, the department will undergo full renovation: the walls
    and floors will be tiled, sewage, electricity and water supply systems will
    be reconstructed, new doors and windows will be installed; each room will be
    provided with a sanitation unit, as well as hot water and oxygen supply
    centralized systems will be built.

    The medical center, which dates back to 1992, is a three-storey building. It
    serves about 1800 patients annually. According to the chief physician and
    head of the hospital Nikolay Dallakyan, the community has seen a significant
    increase in residents in the last few years, and the overall project
    including construction of the fourth delivery facility is welcome news.

    The Hayastan Fund had implemented two other projects in St.Virgin Medical
    center: through the sponsorship of the benefactor Hakop Girtlian, the
    general pediatric department of the hospital underwent renovation in 2003,
    while the neurosurgery department, which serves the whole republic, was
    restored in 2006.
