RIYADH: More than 10 million Yemenis have benefited from 13 health programs undertaken by the King Salman Center for Relief and Humanitarian Action (KSCRHA).

“KSCRHA has provided 823 tons of equipment and medicine, and medical supplies at a cost of more than $56,507,636,” according to a report.

KSCRHA also provides health care and humanitarian assistance to Yemeni patients and their families as well as their companions in Jordan.

These Yemenis are suffering from bullet injuries, paralysis, fractures, loss of body organs as well as trauma, and these are dealt with according to a doctor’s diagnosis.

The center also looks after the accommodations and subsistence of the Yemeni patients even after they have checked out of the hospital and return back to Yemen.

The center also shoulders the cost if the Yemeni patients have to be transferred to specialized hospitals based on medical reports and evaluations.

The center ensures payments for the expenses incurred in hospitalization and treatment in coordination with the Saudi Ministry of Health and agencies involved in KSCRHA’s humanitarian activities involving the Yemenis.

KSCRHA implemented its various health programs with the participation of 12 international and regional organizations.

As part of its commitment to provide the best health care to Yemeni patients, the center also signed an agreement with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) for the implementation of a prosthetics program.

The agreement includes $1.333 million for the provision of medical teams to conduct surgical operations in Yemen and to support the Yemeni Red Crescent Society.

The programs are in accordance with the aspirations and directives of Custodian of Two Holy Mosques King Salman and under the supervision of Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, KSCRHA general supervisor and Royal Court adviser.
