The National Capital District Provincial Health Authority’s Chief Executive Officer Dr. Robin Oge has officially presented the Clinical Services Plan of the New Provincial Specialist Hospital to the Governor for National Capital District Hon. Powes Parkop and the District Development Authorities of NCD. The proposed hospital is to be built at Tete in Port Moresby Northwest district. The clinical service plan covers all necessary clinical services and support services that will be provided at the new hospital. The hospital is readily accessible to patients and is informed by energy sustainable principles. Governor Powes Parkop has approved the Clinical Services Plan for the proposed level 5 Provincial Specialist hospital for NCD. He further emphasized that all future plans for the construction and expansion of other Health Facilities in the National Capital District must be properly planned to meet the standards. The Chairman for NCD Provincial Health Authority Mr. Daniel Waswas said that the Health Service plan will help fulfill the vision of National Capital District Commission to deliver effective health Services in the NCD. Mr. Waswas has acknowledged the support from the Governor Hon. Powes Parkop and District Development Authorities of NCD. The CEO for NCD PHA Dr. Robin Oge said the proposed State of the art level 5 Provincial Specialist Hospital as presented in the Clinical Service Plan will cater for Secondary and Tertiary care services. Dr. Oge said that the hospital will serve as a crucial referral hub by receiving patients from level 2,3 and 4 facilities within NCD, Central Province and Gulf Province. “The most complex and sub-specialty cases will be referred to Port Moresby General Hospital, allowing it to carry out its role as the National Tertiary Referral Hospital,” said Dr. Oge. This will reduce the burden at PMGH because it is overwhelmed with patients seeking primary health care services. The hospital will also support all health facilities across NCD through outreach and serve as a vital training ground for future health professionals. The boards and management of NCD Provincial Health Authority is working towards improving the health service delivery in the National Capital District through improving health facility infrastructure and collaboration with National Capital District Commission and the three District Development Authority of Port Moresby.
