Male’s privately-owned ADK hospital has extended its lease by 50 years and announced a US$23 million to expand services.
The hospital’s Chairman Ahmed Nashid told local media the expansion project would be partly funded using a loan from the German Development Bank, and would double the hospital’s capacity.
The expansion will include four operating theatres, critical care facility, a senior citizen’s unit, cardiac laboratory, MRI machine and a power house, ADK Managing Director Ahmed Afaal told local media.
The hospital will also construct a health science school and grant 10 scholarships providing board and lodging for students coming to Male from the islands.
