Projects - Stepanakert Polyclinic
and Diagnostic Center
The existing healthcare facility in Stepanakert
is partially destroyed from the war; outdated and un-sterilized. The Stepanakert
Polyclinic and Diagnostic Center, located in the region’s capital, will be the
first and only full care medical center in the Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh. The
Polyclinic will provide both in-care and out-care facilities and will include
a Diagnostic Center which will handle advanced medical testing and analyses for
the entire hospital complex.
Armenia Fund USA is currently raising funds
to build the National Diagnostic Center, an integral component of the Healthcare
facility and an essential element for providing the people of Karabakh with modern
day medical assistance. The Fund is committed to moving “beyond bricks and mortar”
and in addition to building the Diagnostic Center, is working to furnish a high
rate laboratory with ultrasound capabilities, X-ray, ECG, EEG, and MRI equipment.
Additionally, Armenia Fund USA will provide ongoing training for medical and administrative
personnel and fund an initial 18-month maintenance contract.
In order
to provide Karabakh with a world-class healthcare facility, Armenia Fund USA has
put together a team of experts that include:
- Zoya Lazaryan
NKR Health Minister - Karine
Andreyan
Clinic Chief of Staff - Kevork Toroyan
Armenia
Fund USA Chairman - Dr. Alina Dorian
International healthcare
specialist | - Annette Choolfaian
Director
Health Management,
NY Medical College - Jeff Kerbeykian
Hospital
architecture and space planning - Robert Djerejian
Hospital design
and construction | The Center’s ground breaking
in August 2002 marked the beginning of this undertaking and was celebrated by
health care personnel, the general populous and regional leaders.
$2 Million
in funds are needed to complete the Clinic and Diagnostic Center. Thanks in large
part to the generous gift of $750,000 from George Pagoumian, over $1.6 million
has been raised to date.
Armenia Fund USA has committed to bringing comprehensive
healthcare to Nagorno- Karabakh. With the help of our dedicated donors, we can
provide appropriate and effective diagnosis and treatment for the people who have
long been living without proper medical assistance.
The future health
of Karabakh depends on the vitality of its people. Your support will help sustain
the most precious of all our assets…life.
