MUSCAT: The Directorate-General of Health Services in Muscat opened a paediatric ward at the Dialysis Centre in Bausher on Wednesday.
Dr Qasim al Salmi, Director-General of the Royal Hospital, presided over the ceremony in the presence of Dr Thamra al Ghafri, Director-General of Muscat Health Services.
The five-bed ward serves children suffering from kidney failure. It has been set up to provide quality health services.
The ward will function in two shifts, offering services for a total of 14 patients daily.
The facility is equipped with all treatment facilities.
Dr Qasim al Salmi said the ward was built as part of the centre’s expansion work carried out by the DGHS to provide hemodialysis services for children with kidney failure, besides supporting children with educational services.
In the upcoming phase, it is planned to provide every child with a tablet while undergoing treatment to improve individual skills and alleviate her/his pain.
A new Dialysis Centre in Al Amerat was recently launched in Muscat in addition to the 5 Dialysis Centres in Bausher and Seeb, Qurayat Hospital, Royal Hospital, and Sultan Qaboos University Hospital.
The Directorate-General of Health Services in the Governorate of Muscat is continuing its endeavour to establish and expand dialysis centres in the governorate due to the rising number of kidney patients.
