Service Changes
Changes to Visiting Hours at Our Facilities
Dear patients and visitors. Please be reminded that our new visiting hours are between 12pm and 8pm. One visitor is allowed per visit, per day for a maximum period of 15 minutes.
We also ask all visitors to follow infection control procedures by washing their hands before and after the visit, and comply with protective equipment where applicable.
Food, flowers and chocolate deliveries are not permitted to enter the hospital.
If you have any questions please ask one of our staff. Thank you for your support
COVID-19 Treatment Facilities
To enhance HMC’s ability to treat and care for COVID-19 patients, Hazm Mebaireek General Hospital, The Cuban Hospital, and the Communicable Disease Centers are now dedicated COVID-19 treatment facilities.
They join the newly opened Mesaieed and Ras Laffan Hospitals as COVID-19 facilities.
Changes to Walk-In Services at National Center for Cancer Care and Research
The Urgent Care Unit at the National Center for Cancer Care and Research is no longer accepting walk-in patients for anything other than cancer-related conditions. Cancer patients with non-cancer related urgent conditions should visit a Primary Health Care Corporation Urgent Care Clinic or one of HMC’s Emergency Departments.
Patients within the NCCCR Urgent Care Unit are vulnerable and have suppressed immune systems – these service changes have been made to ensure their risk of infection is kept to a minimum.
Cancer patients with urgent needs can discuss their care with a physician, enquire about medication dispensing, and enquire about specific oncology and hematology care by calling HMC’s Urgent Consultation Service on 16000
