The struggling Madang Provincial Hospital has received new medical equipment and essential supplies to improve patient care thanks to the kind generosity of business houses. The first being the BSP Financial Group Limited (BSP) where the bank's Madang Branch Manager, Mary Koi presented the equipment during a small ceremony. The items included a brand-new ECG machine, an electric suction machine, and an electric hospital bed. The medical equipment is estimated to cost K50,000. Acting CEO of the Madang Provincial Health Authority (PHA), Dr Sammy Thomas, accepted the donation on behalf of the hospital. The donation was specifically made for the medical ward. Doctors and nurses in the ward had been using old ECG and suction machines. The new ECG machine will help diagnose cardiovascular diseases. The electric suction machine will help remove mucus from patients' lungs to improve breathing. The hospital's Executive Manager, the BSP Regional Manager, the Manager for Nursing Services, and the medical ward team attended the event. Brian Bell Group was the other business house that also donated essential hygiene and electrical supplies. Madang Branch Manager Newman Tom handed over the items to Acting Executive Manager of the Hospital, Mr. Johnmark Jeremiah. The donation included infection control chemicals, hand sanitizers, toilet tissues, hand towels, fluorescent light bulbs, starters, light frames, and floodlights. Ela Enterprise was another one that provided a quote for the maintenance of the patient ablution block for Wards 1 and 2. The quote has been submitted to Madang Open MP Brian Kramer. The hospital is now waiting for his response.
