Kudjip Nazarene Hospital celebrates opening of second operating theatre

by | 26 Mar 2015

Over the past several months, the sounds of hammers, grinding, pounding, and drilling have been common at Kudjip Nazarene Hospital. Onlookers eagerly awaited the day when the blocks and cement would turn into the newest addition to Kudjip Nazarene Hospital — a second operating theatre.

The new theatre officially opened February 23 during a time of celebration as ministry workers and community members came together.

During the celebration, Kudjip's general surgeon, Dr. Jim Radcliffe, shared how the loving care of Nazarene Health Ministries impacts patients and how this is possible because of the Christians who are praying for and partnering with this ministry.

"This theatre is a great help to us as we love and serve our patients," said Dr. Scott Dooley, hospital administrator. "It is especially helpful now that Dr. Radcliffe's son, Dr. Ben Radcliffe, also a surgeon, has arrived to work at Kudjip."

During the celebration meal, some news was shared that caused even more rejoicing. While the theatre was being constructed, one of the local carpenters gave his heart to the Great Physician. The man's life changed from one of drugs, alcohol, and violence to growth in Christ.

The new theatre was immediately placed into service. While one major case was underway in the first operating room, an emergency C-section was completed in the new theatre.
