Description

Jamaica’s healthcare gets a major upgrade as Cornwall Regional Hospital nears completion and a brand new Western Child and Adolescent Hospital prepares to open—bringing modern facilities, expanded beds, and specialized care to the north coast. Health Minister Dr. Christopher Tufton calls it the biggest health infrastructure expansion since independence, set to fully launch within six months. Designed to tackle past crises like delayed emergency care, the new system includes a quadrupled emergency department, more staff, and nearly 800 beds—transforming care for youth and communities from St. Ann to the western tip.
