On the heels of implementing a two-year renovation program that
thoroughly refurbished the Hadrut Regional Hospital in Nagorno
Karabakh, the Hayastan All Armenian Fund completed a major
equipment-upgrade project at the institution. The initiative, worth
17,500,000 drams (just over U.S. $57,000), was sponsored by the
Armenia Fund U.S. Western Region.
Patient wards, staff quarters, and technical facilities alike benefited
from the project, which provided the hospital with beds, mattresses,
sofas, chairs, television sets, refrigerators, air-conditioning units,
and various medical equipment.
"We are happy to have provided the residents of the region with a
well-accommodated hospital, where they can receive high-quality and
safe medical care," said Ara Vardanyan, the Hayastan All Armenian
Fund's acting executive director.
Built in 1982, the Hadrut Regional Hospital had been in a state of
disrepair since the 1990s, with rundown facilities and the lack of
ambulances making it an ongoing challenge to ensure adequate healthcare
to the area's 12,000 residents.
The Hayastan All Armenian Fund's renovation program, launched in
2007, revamped and modernized the hospital and furnished it with an
urgently needed fleet of ambulances. Among the improvements is the
hospital's new laboratory, which has been operational since December
2008. Furthermore, by financing the construction of the 22-kilometer
Togh-Hadrut gas pipeline, which was completed this year, the Hayastan
All Armenian Fund made it possible for the hospital, as well as 5,000
residents of seven nearby villages, to be supplied with natural gas.
