Doha: As part of the continuous improvements to its facilities, Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC) has launched complete remodelling of the Al Kaaban Health Center and has constructed an extension to the building, a new mosque, auxiliary buildings and new parking areas.
The whole project cycle was completed in three years including the design and construction phases. Local architectural design characteristics have been incorporated.
A main consideration was to increase the clinical capacity in the health center by 63 % (from 8 to 13 clinics). The built-up areas have increased by 204 % (1,459 sqm added). The parking slots have increased from 15 to 81 — a 440% increase. Ambulatory accessibility was also provisioned in case of urgent transfer of patients to the nearest hospital.
New clinical services available at Al Kaaban Health Center are well-baby clinic, ultrasound, treatment and observation. The pharmacy has also been expanded.
