Her Royal Highness Princess Ghida Talal, head of the board of trustees of the King Hussein Cancer Foundation and Centre, delivered words to King Abdullah, who was accompanied by Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah.
Her Royal Highness praised His Majesty for his continuous support for the KHCC and KHCF during a ceremony to lay the foundation stone.
The ceremony was attended by Royal Hashemite Court Chief Yousef Issawi, Health Minister Feras Al Hawari, Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority Chief Commissioner Nayef Al Fayez, and Aqaba Governor Khaled Hajjaj, as well as members of the KHCF and KHCC boards of trustees.
The first phase of the project will begin in the third quarter of 2024, with a four-story building spanning 6,738 square meters and employing 90 medical and support employees.
Early detection, chemo and radiation therapy, laboratory, colonoscopy, pain management, a pharmacy, and home care will all be available to cancer patients at the KHCC's Aqaba site.
The Aqaba project is in accordance with the KHCC's objective of strengthening its role as a national cancer treatment institution.
The project is part of the KHCC's growth strategy, which includes the opening of the Samih Darwazah Cancer Centre at Al Bashir Hospital in 2021.
Additional facilities, including as a cancer center, a radiation therapy facility, outpatient clinics, and research laboratories, are being planned surrounding the KHCC headquarters in Amman.
