Dominica Inaugurates Cardiology Department in a Milestone for Nation's Healthcare Infrastructure
LONDON, May 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

The Commonwealth of Dominica's investment in its healthcare infrastructure is 
rapidly developing. This week, the small island inaugurated its cardiology 
department at the Dominica-China Friendship Hospital. The Ministry of Health 
and Wellness lauded the new department as a milestone for the country's 
healthcare system, bringing a higher quality of services to the people of 
Dominica. 

The department is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, including a 24hr 
halter monitoring, 24hr ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, external 
pacemaker capabilities, echocardiograms, and the latest 12 lead ECG technology. 
This will allow citizens to receive specific care on the island rather than 
having to travel overseas. 

The inauguration comes at a pivotal time in Dominica's healthcare journey. The 
small island recently celebrated the elimination of mother-to-child HIV 
transmission, as certified by the World Health Organisation – a monumental 
achievement only accomplished by a handful of countries globally.

During the ceremony, Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit highlighted some of the 
upcoming successes by his administration: "We inaugurated six new health 
centres this year, with another five to be inaugurated within the next two 
months. The new Marigot Hospital will be completed in June of this year, and we 
expect the total completion of the Dominica-China Friendship Hospital at the 
end of 2021."

Notably, many of these healthcare advances have been made possible through 
careful allocation of funds from Dominica's Citizenship by Investment (CBI) 
Programme ( https://cbiu.gov.dm/ ). As countries like India grapple with a 
second, and deadlier, wave of COVID-19, having access to quality healthcare has 
become even more crucial. Dominica has not only effectively curbed community 
spread but, despite the restrictions caused by the pandemic, remains committed 
to enhancing healthcare on the island. Aside from healthcare, Dominica has also 
invested heavily in education, sustainability and affordable housing for its 
population through CBI funds.

Under the programme, investors across the globe can become citizens of Dominica 
once either investing through the Economic Diversification Fund ( 
https://cbiu.gov.dm/investment-options/economic-diversification-fund/ ) or 
buying into selected eco-luxury resorts ( 
https://cbiu.gov.dm/investment-options/real-estate/ ) from internationally 
branded hoteliers like Hilton, Marriott and Kempinski. Once passing the 
necessary vetting process, citizenship is usually granted within three months, 
along with a wealth of benefits. These include visa-free or visa-on-arrival 
entry to over 140 destinations, alternative business prospects and the right to 
pass citizenship down through descent. Additionally, investors can rest assured 
that their investment is contributing to the betterment of their adoptive home.
