Davao del Sur Provincial Hospital located at Digos City will get a two storey facility which will house maternal health services and facilities with a target completion on the last quarter of 2013.
The first phase of construction will include rooms for X-ray, ultrasound, emergency, nursery and central supply where the second floor of the building will accommodate the obstetrics-gynecology wards.
The hospital has currently a 170 bed-capacity that caters to pregnant women to avail of obstetrical service.
They are planning to expand the bed capacity to 80 additional beds, hopefully towards the last quarter of 2014 or first quarter of 2015.
Two OB-Gyne consultants will be hired to ensure better maternal health care and services.
Governor Douglas Cagas has been supporting this cause and is closely working with the Provincial Health Office for the upgrading of hospital facilities to provide better service to his constituents.
