Neonatal intensive care to get upgrade

The non-governmental organisation Thermokitida Agapis (Incubator of Love) has been given the green light to renovate the neonatal intensive care unit at Makarios Hospital in Nicosia, it announced on Tuesday.

Following a meeting of the NGO with the state health services (Okypy), it was decided they would undertake the renovation of the unit. Thermokitida Agapis, which helps support premature babies, will add a new room to the unit, equipped with five spaces.

Work on the unit is expected to begin in two months.

 

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
