A WORLD-class hospital dedicated to cardiac care will be built in Bahrain on an area covering 45,000 sq m in Awali.

HRH Prime Minister Prince Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa gave the green light for the project, by approving the blueprint and issuing a directive to invite bids.

Work on the 140-bed Mohammed bin Khalifa Cardiac Hospital is scheduled to start in the last quarter of this year and is expected to be completed by March 2016.

The medical complex will include four cardiac catheter theatres, two theatres for major heart surgeries and one common theatre for cardiac catheterisation and other operations.
