Algiers: Overseeing the laying of the foundation stone for a new 500-bed university hospital complex in Constantine, the President of the Republic stressed the need to move towards the creation of specialized healthcare hubs that provide precise medical services in fields such as neurology, neurosurgery, and cardiology, noting that such facilities will undoubtedly boost the national healthcare system.
According to Algeria Press Service, the President emphasized the necessity of rapidly dealing with critical cases that require immediate medical intervention. He also highlighted Algeria’s partnerships with other countries in the medical field, such as Germany, which is expected to provide necessary support for advanced medical specialties.
The President remarked that while constructing large hospitals is common, there is an essential need for doctors in highly specialized fields who have graduated from Algerian universities. He stated that the goal is to graduate around 13,000 specialist doctors, as Algeria currently produces 13,000 general practitioners annually.
