Micro school opens doors for paediatric patients at SMC

Health Minister Faeqa Al Saleh opened a Micro school at the Salmaniya Medical Complex providing children smart solutions in the form of basic knowledge, self-values and important life skills. The opening of the facility, housed in Children’s Oncology Section Ward 202 and the Children’s Ward 31, coincides with the beginning of the new school year in the Kingdom.

“This provides a suitable environment for treatment, daily activities and education, which reflects positively on the course of treatment,” said Al Saleh. The minister lauded Her Highness Shaikha Zain bint Khalid bin Abdullah Al Khalifa, the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of Al Mabarra Al Khalifia for the initiative.

Under the auspices of HH Shaikha Zain, Al Mabarra Al Khalifia has been actively supporting the education of paediatric patients as well as charitable work.
