About the damage

Rosary Sister’s Hospital, located 300 meters from the port, is now nothing more than bare walls and empty halls. The once brand-new 200-bed establishment has suffered from extensive structural and equipment damage and is now no longer operational in any of its medical and administrative units.

About the Hospital

The Rosary Sisters Hospital operates under the guidance of the Holy Chair in Rome, and its funding has always been dependent on donors and charitable organizations. It is itself a nonprofit organization registered as an NGO in Lebanon, since it serves the middle and unfortunate people of our community.

The Hospital’s significance

The humanitarian role of the Rosary Sisters’ Hospital is remarkable. Before this tragedy, the hospital had been completely renovated and modernized, it employed 160 staff and 140 physicians and it attended the following medical sections:
General emergencies, Ophthalmology, Pulmonology, Cardiology, Internal Medicine, Orthopedic surgery, Neurosurgery, Oncology

The needs are massive and the total losses estimated are worth 12 million dollars, which the hospital cannot cover. But with the help of many organizations like Rotary, the hospital will be able to start receiving patients again. Thus and in order to allow a gradual restart we prioritized the needs in collaboration with the administration of the hospital and international health experts, and developed the plan into several phases.
