About Us
We are lucky to be a part of the Kuwait Oil Company Ahmadi Hospital.
We have many goals to achieve, but what is more important than achieving those goals is to sustain them and firmly incorporate them in into our practice.
Patient safety serves as the corner stone upon which all of our other goals are built. Other achievements in the absence of this goal are considered futile; otherwise, there is no speed limit on the road of success.
We encourage our members to be exposed to the clinical educators in anesthesia from North America and Europe to keep the wheel of education rolling to benefit all the other members of our department. Therefore, we wish success to our candidates who are preparing to sit the anesthesia boards in Ireland, UK and North America and hope that others follow serious steps towards their continuous medical education.
Our members are working hard in upgrading our services to match and compete with international standards. The new services include the acute pain service, regional anesthesia, bariatric service, ICU system, and critical care rapid response team.
These are multiple goals and challenges that we are striving to see running and successful, but goals cannot be achieved over one night, therefore no night should pass without an achievement, as it has always been said.
