Guyana's Georgetown Hospital certified as a kidney transplant centre
Guyana's healthcare system has been boosted to meet international standards and now the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) is a certified kidney transplant centre. The certificate was handed over on Wednesday at the Ministry of Health’s Boardroom.
It was through the Ministry of Health in conjunction with the Human Organ and Tissue Transplant Agency (HOATTA), that the hospital received support to achieve this monumental status, being the first in the country to get the certification.
Health Minister Dr Frank Anthony said the country’s healthcare must meet international standards and in recognising this, the hospital can now compete on this level.
