Gerehu General Hospital is receiving 2 containers full of supplies from the Australia Rotary Against Malaria today.
The 40ft and 20ft are the first two of four containers promised to the hospital.
The containers come filled with hospital supplies, including beds, mattresses and X-ray equipment.
This move is to beef up the hospital facilities to a level 5 status.
Prior to receiving the status change, Gerehu Hospital was a major urban clinic. It is slowly undergoing changes to fit the status.
Over the past months, it has seen an increase in senior specialist medical officers from about 2 to at least 6 to date.
This number is still to increase.
The hospital will also extend the adult ward to include an ICU. It will have a separate TB ward and also have a layout.
The containers are already in the country but yet to be released from the wharf. This should happen later today.
