Acting as a Regional and referral Hospital for Dar es Salaam and Coast Regions. The Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology functions as an independent unit although it is a subdivision of the Surgical Services Department. The Department is subdivided into 4 Firms each with at least 2 Consultants/ Specialists. Each Firm works independently with its own outpatient clinics, beds, operation schedules, and emergency duties. The Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology has 363 beds. 67 beds are used for gynecologic patients and 296 beds for obstetric cases. The beds are distributed in different locations as follows: Sewa Haji Block, Muhirnbili: There are 2 wards for gynaecologic services. Ocean Road Hospital: For normal (Obstetric) deliveries. Muhimbili Maternity Block; A unit for high risk obstetric services. The public demand for Obstetric and Gynecological services is very high. The Department is often overwhelmed. For example, although there are 363 beds, the daily average bed state is between 600 and 700 patients. | en_US |
