Private companies tackle Victoria Jubilee Hospital on Labour Day
KINGSTON, Jamaica – Numerous departments and sections at the Victoria Jubilee Hospital (VJH) in Kingston received much needed renovation and beautification on Labour Day through a collaborative effort from corporate Jamaica.
The Sanmerna Foundation, along with the Graham Sisters Foundation, took over the 5th floor of the VJH, which is the antenatal ward. Cal’s was responsible for renovating the post-surgical obstetric ward, while Guardian Life rehabilitated a garden that overlooks the area that will soon be known as the oncology cancer ward. Guardian also carried out painting in that general area. Just outside the antenatal clinic, Sherwin Williams conducted painting and other activities to uplift the car park that is designated to the antenatal clinic.
Dr Natalie Whylie, the chief executive officer of the Kingston Public Hospital and VJH, was happy as she looked around and saw the radiance of 5th floor.
