A 1.5 million euro project agreement to re-establish the healthcare services at Suhul Hospital in Tigray Regional State was signed last week. The project is expected to benefit over 18,000 people through the procurement of medical equipment to improve diagnostic, therapeutic, and patient-monitoring capabilities. Financed by the Government of Italy and UNOPS Ethiopia, the project also aims to provide training on operation and maintenance services to the medical personnel serving in the hospital. Agostino Palese, Italian Ambassador to Ethiopia, said while enhancing the healthcare service for the benefit of vulnerable communities, his country reaffirms its determination to contribute to the enhancement of the region's health sector by increasing its capacity. Suhul Hospital serves as a critical healthcare provider in the Northwestern Zone of Tigray, offering a wide range of medical services. Worknesh Mekonnen, director of the multi-regional office of UNOPS in Ethiopia, noted the required work to increase the Hospital's ability to provide quality care.
