100-bed hospital nears completion in Margibi County

100-bed hospital nears completion in Margibi County

Margibi County – A modern 100-bed hospital, valued at over two million United States dollars, is nearing completion in the Morris Farm community, Lower Margibi County. The facility, spearheaded by acclaimed gospel musician Charles Slewion, represents a major private-sector initiative aimed at addressing the nation’s critical healthcare challenges.

During a tour of the hospital on Thursday, Slewion described the project as a beacon of hope for Margibi County and the nation. He highlighted its importance in improving access to quality healthcare, noting that the facility symbolizes the collective dream of a healthier Liberia. “This hospital is not just a structure; it is a testament to the power of determination, collaboration, and a shared vision. It brings hope, relief, and the promise of a brighter future for countless families,” Slewion stated.

Slewion underscored the broader impact of the hospital, urging Liberians to view it as a transformative project for the country’s healthcare system. He emphasized its potential to provide care for mothers in need, elderly patients requiring treatment, and underserved communities striving for better health outcomes.

Despite the hospital’s promise, Slewion pointed out several challenges that could undermine its success. The poor condition of the road leading to the facility poses significant obstacles for patients, medical staff, and emergency vehicles, making access to care a life-and-death issue. He stressed the urgent need for road improvements, calling it a crucial step toward saving lives.

Another major challenge is transportation. Many residents in remote areas are forced to travel long distances on foot to access medical services. Slewion proposed the establishment of a dedicated bus system to connect the hospital with surrounding communities and ensure timely access to care.

Electricity remains a critical concern, as frequent power outages threaten essential hospital operations, including surgeries and the storage of life-saving medications. Slewion described stable electricity as a necessity rather than a luxury, emphasizing its importance in delivering consistent, high-quality care.

As the hospital nears completion, Slewion called on Liberians and international partners to support its success. He appealed for contributions in the form of medical equipment, road development, transportation systems, and sustainable energy solutions. “This hospital represents a dream of a better Liberia. Together, we can make it a reality—a place where no patient is turned away, where every life is valued, and where hope is restored,” he declared.

The tour of the facility was attended by several dignitaries, including Margibi County Senator Nathaniel McGill, who commended the project as a game-changing initiative for the region.

Once operational, the hospital is expected to significantly ease the burden on existing healthcare services in the county, providing critical care to thousands of residents and marking a new chapter in Liberia’s healthcare development.
