Hospitals Advised to Fast-Track Critical Care Machine Acquisition

Hospitals have been strongly advised to accelerate the procurement process for critical care (CS) machines. This important guidance comes directly from the Additional Chief Secretary, who stressed the immediate need for these sophisticated medical devices. The strategic acquisition of CS machines is fundamental to reinforcing the capacity of intensive care departments and ensuring that individuals facing respiratory distress can be effectively managed. Swift action in obtaining this equipment is key to maintaining high standards of patient care and preparedness for health crises. The directive emphasizes timely execution to meet essential medical demands.
