HOSPITAL PROFILE
Green Crescent
is the pioneer professional private sector health care hospital in
Riyadh, established in 1401H/ 1981G by Dr. Wael Buraik. It has
focused on advanced medical services and sustained a reputation for
quality, and has become the example followed by other hospitals
and medical centers. Green Crescent Hospital leads the present health
care environment.
We have varied Medical Care Schemes
designed to provide health services for individuals, Establishments,
Companies, Dispensaries and Polyclinics in Riyadh.
We strive to provide our members/
customers with the best health care services at the best prices using
the best techniques.
Our Consultant and Specialized Clinics
– Outpatient Services, supported by modern diagnostic sections
equipped with the latest medical apparatus and technologies has
established a wide range of patients receiving its medical care.
The Inpatient Services with 55 beds are
running at the highest hotel standard, with operating rooms that can
accommodate all surgical operations.
Health Care at the Green Crescent
Hospital is provided to the community based on the following
principles:
Highly qualified specialist physicians covering a wide
range of disciplines.
Excellent diagnostic facilities – including the latest
machines in X-ray, laboratory technology and the technical staff who
are highly competent to operate them.
Ambulatory approach to medical care with an emphasis on
outpatient, day care, and short stay inpatient management, thereby
reducing the load on hospital needs.
Promoting the image of the hospital as a
Health Center with an on-going concern for monitoring
the health of the registered members who in turn, can expect to be
treated as more than “ISOLATED” cases. To this end, each member has a
personal medical record, which is kept updated after each visit. We
also provide valuable coordination and continuity of care, which is
lacking in multiple other forms of health provision.
Placing a much needed emphasis on Health Education and
Preventive Medicine by making available to registered patients, an
annual medical check-up offering a full range of screening procedures
including cervical cytology, mammography, obstetric ultrasound etc.,
to emphasis the importance of early detection of disease.
Special
consideration for patients with chronic diseases who require
monitoring and continued specialist attention to ensure the best
management and control of their medical problems. Hence the
provision of special clinics and programs for diabetics, hypertension
and those suffering from chronic chest diseases.
A growing awareness of the need for a community health
service reflected in our quick response to domiciliary calls by the
doctor and nurses available to give treatment, and attend to patients
at their residence, and an ever ready support and advisory service to
other physicians and clinics, in the area who lack our facilities and
expertise.
Continued care for our patients when they are referred
from our care to other hospitals. The organization of transfer,
liaison with receiving physicians and continued interest and support
for the patients. Our AIR AMBULANCE SERVICE ensures safe transfer
under medical supervision within the Kingdom and abroad where
necessary.
Meeting the needs of different sectors of the community
on their own ground and according to their own specific requirements
is planned by setting up “ON SITE” satellite Green Crescent Clinics,
closely linked to the mother hospital which will provide the necessary
back up referral facilities.
The application of Total Quality
Management in Green Crescent Hospital started in the beginning of
1992, and was thereby the pioneer medical facility in the private
sector to recognize the importance of quality systems.
