AMH Directions

It gives me great pleasure to introduce myself as the new Chief Medical Officer and CEO of the American Mission Hospital. Transition times are opportunities for renewal and to rededicate ourselves to the core values on which the organization was founded over a hundred years ago. A new website is being developed to reflect a series of changes that will enhance patient experience of care both within the walls of the hospital and our outreach to the community.

First of all I acknowledge the debt that I owe to Dr Paul Armerding and his predecessors for their legacy of service to American Mission Hospital and the community of the Kingdom of Bahrain going back to 1903.

My intention is to continue to fulfil the mission of American Mission Hospital to provide high quality healthcare to all who seek care and at the same time to carefully manage the process by which we deliver quality care. As part of this process we will continue to develop and strengthen our relationship with the Australian Council for Healthcare Standards (ACHSI) and build on the accreditation that they awarded us in 2006.

I also intend to build American Mission’s reputation as a leader in defining healthcare policies in the private sector and in partnering with Governmental agencies and other interested parties in promoting lifestyle changes affecting the quality of life for the community of the Kingdom of Bahrain. I am especially eager to develop the services we offer at our hospital and at our Saar location.

I should stress that American Mission Hospital will continue to be a not-for-profit hospital. This means that we do not have shareholders to pay dividends to and any surplus funds and monies raised through charity goes back into the hospital funds to improve our services and standards of care to the people of Bahrain.

If you do have any comments or ideas that you believe I should hear please contact me on: gc@amh.org.bh
