Govt upgrading hospitals in the Klang Valley


KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 11, 2013): The government commitment to provide patients with the best healthcare is proven by the upgrading of hospitals in the Klang Valley, especially Kuala Lumpur Hospital (KLH).
Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr S.Subramaniam said the HKL upgrading projects include the RM600 million mother and childcare complex and the RM46 million for a building to add wards.
"Another RM60 million has been allocated for a carpark capable of accommodating 2,000 vehicles scheduled for completion next year.
"We are also upgrading other hospitals in the Klang Valley so that patients do not converge on HKL," he told reporters after presenting Deepavali contributions at Orthopaedic Ward, HKL here today.
Besides infrastructure, attention is also given to equipment to ensure high quality services and in line with the latest medical technology. Established in 1870, HKL receives some 16,000 patients daily. – Bernama
