Holguín and especially, the Center for the Research and Rehabilitation of Hereditary Ataxias (Cirah) are among the provinces and institutions of Cuba with better performance in the annual health contests, after obtaining three awards and a recognition, achieved by the University of Medical Sciences (UCMHo) in the 43th edition of the contest, whose award ceremony was held in Havana last Friday.

 

The Lucía Íñiguez Landín Clinical Surgical Hospital of Holguín develops an extensive investment program to boost its maintenance and repairs work for the benefit of the medical care of the population.

 

The collaborative alliance between Cuba and the German company Ottobock has allowed for access to knowledge and the transfer of technology, with the purpose of improving the quality of life of Cuban patients via orthopedic technology.

 

They are named the anonymous heroes of the operating room, because almost nobody talks about them or their work before, during and after the surgical procedure.
