Austral Construction, a company of the Adone Holding group, completed the delivery of two hospitals in the Republic of Congo in December. The company has been operating in the country since 2010. The projects are part of the government programme “Health for All,” a strategic initiative aimed at expanding and modernising the hospital network across several regions of the country.
Expanding access to healthcare is one of the most crucial pillars for a country’s social development. In the Republic of Congo (Congo-Brazzaville), the delivery of two new hospitals represents a structural advancement for thousands of people living far from major urban centers, who until now faced significant limitations in accessing specialized medical care.
The Sibiti and Ouesso units were delivered to the population. Located 300 kilometers west of Brazzaville, the Sibiti hospital serves approximately 40,000 inhabitants. The facility includes 210 beds, high-complexity equipment such as CT scanners and MRI machines; a fully equipped laboratory, a blood bank, a medical gas production facility, adult and neonatal ICUs and a fully equipped surgical centre.
“The units were designed to provide excellent care to the population, expanding access to essential health services and strengthening the country’s hospital network,” says Leonardo Belussi, CEO, Austral Construction, a subsidiary of Adone Holding. “We are delivering the most advanced cutting-edge medical technology. The completion of these two units reinforces our commitment to building strategic infrastructure projects that contribute to the country’s social and structural development, while also generating significant local employment,” he adds.
