We offered the emergency service of the Near East University Hospital free of charge to all our citizens. We continue to support the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, which makes life difficult all over the world, with great devotion. We provided free control and examination services to oncology patients, diabetics and pregnant women who need to be constantly and regularly checked during the pandemic. With the motto “You stay at home, stay safe, we are at work in the hospital for those who need it” during the home isolation period, we served our patients with devotion. We offer our sincere thanks and respect to all our healthcare professionals.”

We will continue to strengthen the power of our state and produce science for the benefit of society...
Expressing that the Near East University Hospital is continuing to fulfill its mission to further strengthen the state and reduce its burden, Prof. Dr. İrfan Suat Günsel also noted that with their adherence to the principle of producing science for the benefit of society, they produce preventive practices in today's understanding of health. Prof. Dr. İrfan Suat Günsel said: “Our state hospital Dr. Burhan Nalbantoğlu was seriously damaged in the fire incident in the past months, and as the Near East University Hospital and Dr. Suat Günsel Kyrenia University Hospital, we have opened our doors to our people. We ensured the continuity of treatments of 13 newborns and 97 patients without disruption. In addition, due to the COVID-19 epidemic that started in China and reached our country, as the main building of Dr. Burhan Nalbantoğlu State Hospital started to function as a pandemic hospital, we met the emergency needs of our people at the Near East University Hospital free of charge. We also carried out examinations and routine tests free for cancer and diabetes patients and pregnant women. In order to fight against the devastating effects of the COVID-19 outbreak, we developed a face shield produced by our scientists, and a portable breathing apparatus with replicators that enable the use of existing breathing devices in more than one patient. As part of our mission to build a healthy future, we have launched a free health insurance application for our Near East Family and Near East Preschool, Near East Primary School, and Near East College students. In addition, our university students under Social Security Foundation can get free service from our hospital. While we offer the most advanced diagnosis and treatment opportunities to our people at our hospital, we will continue to contribute to the development of health awareness with our Near Health magazine. Stay healthy.”
