The Kwakwani Hospital
Plans for an operating theatre at the hospital were mentioned last year by Minister of Health, Dr. Frank Anthony. The minister was at the time visiting the hospital where the government had completed the expansion of the Accident and Emergency area and upgraded some wards. There he had mentioned that “In 2023, further renovations will be done and the intention is to add a minor operating theatre,” to better serve residents utilising the hospital.
