03. Project Rationale

(Do not indicate /explain the objective of the project. Answer to each sub section should be in brief)
3.1) Introduction to the Project:
(General sector information and information specific to the area)

The Ashraff Memorial Hospital is a leading developing tertiary health care institution in the Regional Director of Health Services division Kalmunai, in the coastal area of the Ampara District in Sri Lanka. This hospital is serving to a population of nearly half million. It is the mother institution to 38 smaller healthcare institutions which come under the purview of the Kalmunai RDHS. Patients are referred to Ashraff Memorial Hospital Kalmunai for specialized care and treatment by these 38 smaller institutions.

This hospital which has accommodation for about 300 beds gives specialized treatment in Medicine, Surgery, Gynaecologys & Obstetrics and Paediatrics and is planning to introduce sub specialarities like Dermatology, Eye, ENT and Radiology etc. in order to extend its services to the patients coming for treatment which is increasing daily. We also have a mobile clinical team which visits remote areas and conducts clinics for the local population. There is an Intensive Care Unit and Premature Baby Care Unit functioning in this hospital. Although we have the above mentioned facilities yet we do not have a Trauma unit which is very essential for management of Road Traffic accident and Home accidents. Further we are unable to meet the medical needs of the ever increasing. Elderly population of this area, especially in Orthopedics and Surgical care.

At present the surgical teams are sharing the Gynaecologys & Obstetrics operation theatre thereby the surgical operative time as well as the intake of patients is restricted. Due to this drawback causes unnecessary transfer of patients, prolonged stay of patients in wards awaiting surgical treatment and long waiting list for elective operations. Further we are unable to maintain adequate sterlity in the Operation Theater

Presently the surgical patients are sharing the Medical Intensive Care Unit with Medical Patients. Therefore a separate Surgical Intensive Care Unit will facilitate better care for surgical patients (every year 50 to 60 patients with critical burn injury are treated.) these patients have to under go prolonged critical care. Therefore a separate Burns Unit will enable better care.
Attachments (if any):-...............................

3.2) Specific Problem to be Addressed by the Project:

The trauma Unit is to accommodate Accident service Operating Theatres, Surgical Wards, Eye Ward, ENT Ward, Burn Unit, SICU, Paediatric Surgical Ward and Physiotherapy unit. Providing separate surgical OT will reduce the waiting list for elective surgery, reduce unnecessary transfer of patients to other hospital and enable to maintain good sterile condition. This also improves Gynaecologys & Obstetrics operative time & other operative facilities.
( Last year the total operations done were about 2600-2700 and Gynaecologys & Obstetrics about 1500-1600. This numbers are increasing every year)


attachments (if any):-...............................

3.3) Mode of Intervention in term of this Project (Justification):

Patients seeking treatment for surgical problems and casualty admission following Road Traffic Accidents, Bomb blasts and War casualties are very high in this hospital. At present, there are no proper ward facilities for surgical casualty admissions and orthopaedics admission in this institution. At the same time, this project will bring the Health Care services to the doorstep of poor remote villagers living in this region. This is the main referral centre for Tertiary Care Services for more than 35 smaller institutions in the coastal region of Ampara District with all other supportive facilities such as Intensive Care Unit, Blood Bank and Radiology Unit without adequate infrastructure facilities.

Therefore, this project will definitely improve the health status of the population of this are who were internally displaced and resettled by one or other incidences during the last two decades due to communal violence and civil War and recently by the Tsunami tidal wave. Hence, this project is urgently needed and should be given priority considering the difficulties faced by the poor and marginalized people living in this region.
