Yemen Health Minister orders increased emergency and intensive care readiness

Yemen's Minister of Public Health and Population, Dr. Qasem Bahibah, has issued directives to health officials to maximize readiness across emergency and intensive care departments. This move comes in response to recent field developments and military escalations.

Key measures include strengthening stocks of medicines, medical supplies, and emergency equipment. The Minister also emphasized the need for continuous 24-hour shift systems in critical departments and called for increased blood bank reserves through enhanced coordination between transfusion centers.

In Aden, the Health Office has formed a unified operations room to coordinate the reception of wounded individuals. Additionally, maintenance is being conducted on an oxygen plant in Aden to ensure its operational capacity is restored within days. Dr. Bahibah also launched a blood donation campaign at the National Blood Transfusion and Research Center to bolster medical reserves.
