Patients needing diagnostic treatment aided by Computerized Tomography (CT) scans in Region Six (East Berbice/ Corentyne) can now access this at the New Amsterdam Public Hospital (NAPH).
A release yesterday from the Ministry of Health said that the CT scans, being offered free of cost, will bring great relief to residents in nearby areas who were previously forced to travel elsewhere to seek this type of service. The release said that the installation of the equipment follows a recent visit to the Hospital by Minister of Health, Dr. Frank Anthony, who committed to taking immediate steps to improve health services in the region as a whole and at the NAPH.
