As we've reported, the hospital has been having problems with its roof. Well, a full structural review has been done and the news is not good. The Hospital says, quote, "we know that there are multiple key areas of the hospital that we can no longer utilize until permanent solutions are in place."

Reinforcements have been put in place to prop up beams supporting the roof, but the unsafe areas covers half the hospital - and vital areas have had to be shut down. These are the Operating Theatre, the Central Sterilization Unit, the Imaging Department, the Specialist Clinics, the Pharmacy and Dietary Services. Now - Central Sterilization is a core function of the hospital - every single square of gauze used in the ER and every suture sewed requires a sterile set. It's unclear if the hospital will farm this service out to its regional counterparts.

So, what can you expect out of the hospital right now? The hospital says, quote, "we will continue to do deliveries and Caesarean sections and other serious, life threatening emergencies." And then it adds, quote, "The Accident and Emergency Unit can no longer be flooded with non- emergency cases."

So what's the solution? Well, the KHMH is waiting for a team of Mexican engineers to assess the facility. They specialize in the design and construction of Hospitals.
