Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev attended the opening of the emergency department at Karabakh University Clinic on November 7.
University rector Shahin Bayramov and clinic director Samir Babayev briefed the president on the facilities. The work followed the approved architectural and planning design, and the existing engineering and utility systems were rebuilt.
The department has functional areas for receiving, examining and treating patients. These include resuscitation and pediatric areas, a ward, rooms for storing medicines and staff facilities.
The department is equipped with medical equipment and modern engineering systems. Ambulances fitted for resuscitation and intensive care are available to transfer patients to other facilities when medically indicated.
The clinic currently has 70 inpatient beds, including five intensive care beds. The emergency department has an additional 19 beds and five operating rooms. The clinic will be able to serve 70 inpatients and 19 emergency patients at the same time.
Under the medical facility’s 2027 development plan, it is projected to employ 230–250 staff. The university clinic aims to develop not only as a provider of medical services but also as a centre combining modern medical education, clinical practice and future research.
