Dharumavantha Hospital, one of the largest buildings in the Maldives, is ready to open as a tertiary-level facility on the 16th of this month after renovations.
Speaking at the Republic Day ceremony held at the Dharubaaruge last night, the President said that Dharumavantha Hospital is set to open on the 16th of this month, and that some parties had refused to use the facility, calling it a ‘cave’.
“On November 16th, we will transform Dharumavantha Hospital into a tertiary hospital. We will establish all necessary services there. A place that some people previously described as a ‘cave’, Dharumavantha Hospital, will be turned into a real hospital, equipped with all facilities as a tertiary hospital, and we will, God willing, open it on November 16th,” the President said.
“The President stated that Dharumavantha Hospital will open after establishing all services to a tertiary level. While Dharumavantha Hospital is set to open this month, the President said that the government is working on opening Hulhumale’ Hospital with tertiary-level services as well.
Dharumavantha Hospital’s services began to be utilized during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it has not been officially opened yet.
