Introduction
A hospital can best be defined as an institution that provides health care and one that has a well-
qualified and organized medical personnel and one that has enough structures and facilities to
deliver services such as end of life care, curative, preventive, emergency, convalescent and
diagnostic services among others. The basic facilities of a hospital are usually grouped into
physical and non-structural elements. A hospital is usually classified according to its features.
This paper explores the project of a hospital with all basic facilities.
Vision
The best hospital in Saudi Arabia.
Mission
To provide quality health services to improve the quality of life of the people of Saudi Arabia
and to provide a benchmark where all other hospitals can emulate.
Objectives
1. To transform the quality of health care services in Saudi Arabia through quality services
and efficient leadership.
2. To provide a bench mark and a model of health service delivery where other hospitals in
Saudi Arabia can use to measure the success of a hospital.
3. To revolutionize the academic sector and especially the teaching of health sciences to
enable continuous lifelong learning among the students to improve their overall qualities
and skills.

4. To maintain high standards of efficacy in operations, management and moral ethical
principles necessary in the delivery of healthcare.
According to Khoja, and Sheeshah, 2018 basic facilities are the defining features of a hospital
and these basic facilities include; an emergency department that caters for emergency issues such
as fires and accidents, in-patient services. For a hospital to effectively offer services, in-patient
facilities such as beds, wards and life support services are necessary. The hospital will also cater
for the out-patient services where the hospital shall offer services around the clock throughout
the week.
The hospital will also be fully staffed with both the qualified doctors, nurses, nutritionists,
surgeons and other health workers and capable of offering teaching and referral services.
Services such as food, clean water, security and other social amenities will also be necessary in
the hospital. The hospital will also have a pharmacy with qualified staff to provide good
medicines and vaccines to the patients finally, the hospital will have a fully stocked and well
equipped laboratory for disease testing and furthering research in medical studies.
The main reasons why starting a fully equipped hospital with all basic facilities is my main
consideration is to help transform the nature of teaching medical studies in Saudi Arabia to make
it more inclusive and student oriented. To solve errors of congestion in the wards, to solve the
arising problems such as insufficient health professionals. Thus address the upcoming challenges
such as different emerging patterns of disease. This will be realized by changing the nature of
health attention in the hospitals to make it more centered on preventive measures as opposed to
curative. The management of the hospital will focus on the attention of health from an individual
perspective to a community setup whereby it will be possible to use health promotion theories in

disease prevalence control, and resolving the pharmacological burden in the Saudi Arabian
populations.
Project rationale
The main problem that led me to choosing a hospital well equipped with basic facilities as my
project is to help improve the condition and nature of health services in Saudi Arabia by setting
an example in the health sector. The hospitals are faced with numerous challenges some ranging
from mismanagement of finances, incompetent staff, poor teaching facilities among other
problems. The project is therefore set to address these challenges not necessary charged with the
responsibility of solving these challenges but to try and bridge the gap between the services
offered by the private sector and those of the government through prices subsidy, quality
assurance and competency in management.
The hospital is set not a complete solution to all the existing problems but some standard
measure of which other hospitals are expected to arrive, maintain and operate at.by setting these
standards, the hospital will then influence the other hospital managers and policy makers in
improving the condition of health services in Saudi Arabia. I arrived at the decision of setting up
a hospital with all basic facilities after assessing a series of considerations such as ethical
considerations and legal frameworks in the Saudi Arabian health management. Looking at the
existing social patterns of community health ways in which all these challenges can be addressed
through collaborative efforts between the society and the government.
For instance, explains Berkman, et al 2014 all health services are regulated by the government
through the ministry of health. Public hospitals enjoy government funding and are thus able to
provide services at relatively cheaper rates. However, these government funded institutions are
