The field hospital at the Mandeville Regional Hospital is now fully operational and is actively serving as a medium-term overflow medical facility for patients admitted through the Accident and Emergency (A&E) department. Established in response to increased patient inflows, following Hurricane Melissa, the unit represents a proactive step to strengthen service delivery capacity.

The facility can accommodate up to 22 patients and provides a dedicated space for individuals to receive care for the duration of their hospital stay. This strategic addition is already reducing congestion within the A&E department and improving patient flow across the institution.

The initiative reinforces the Southern Regional Health Authority’s commitment to delivering safe, efficient, and patient centred care. By expanding capacity and easing pressure on frontline services, the field hospital enhances the overall care environment for patients while supporting staff in delivering timely, quality healthcare services.

Jamaica’s long-term recovery following Hurricane Melissa requires partnership. The Southern Regional Health Authority is truly grateful for the pledge of support by United Kingdom (UK) Minister for the Caribbean, Chris Elmore.

He reaffirmed the UK Government’s commitment to supporting Jamaica’s long-term recovery and climate resilience following the impact of Category 5 Hurricane Melissa.

During a visit to St. Elizabeth, he highlighted the importance of investing in resilient infrastructure across disaster-vulnerable Caribbean nations. He toured the UK-funded Santa Cruz Smart Health Centre, which remained operational during Hurricanes Beryl and Melissa, and praised its strength and preparedness.

The SRHA assured Mr. Elmore that the UK’s investment in upgrading the Santa Cruz Health Centre as a SMART health facility, is “good value for money”.
