Dr Soliman Fakeeh Hospital Jeddah: A Hub of Innovation, Expertise, and Community Care

Dr. Soliman Fakeeh Hospital Jeddah (DSFH-J) is buzzing with exciting developments! From groundbreaking surgeries to prestigious accreditations and a dedication to improving patient experience and community support, the hospital is setting a new standard for healthcare in the region.

A Triumph of Skill: Removing a Rare Tumor

The human body is a complex network, and sometimes, delicate interventions are necessary to restore health.  This was the case for a 44-year-old woman who had been battling chronic pain and weakness in her lower right leg.  Examinations revealed a 4 cm tumor nestled within the peroneal nerve, a critical nerve responsible for foot movement. The danger of surgery lay in the potential for nerve damage, leading to paralysis.

However, the skilled team led by Dr. Wajdi Naseer rose to the challenge. Collaborating with a specialized neurophysiology team, they meticulously planned the procedure to avoid harming the motor nerve. The surgery was a success! The tumor was removed entirely, and the patient recovered remarkably, regaining full use of her foot and discharged within a day. This case exemplifies DSFH-J's commitment to tackling complex medical challenges and delivering exceptional patient care.

Nursing Excellence Recognized: PTAP Accreditation

The heart of any healthcare facility lies in its dedicated nurses. DSFH-J's nursing team has achieved a major milestone – the prestigious Practice Transition Accreditation Program (PTAP) from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). This accreditation signifies the exceptional quality of DSFH-J's transitional programs that support and guide nurses as they transition into new roles. It's a testament to the unwavering dedication of the team to upholding the highest standards in nursing education and practice.

Investing in the Future: Over 25 Accredited Programs

Dr. Soliman Fakeeh Hospital recognizes the importance of nurturing future generations of medical professionals.  The hospital, along with Fakeeh Care Group, recently celebrated a significant accomplishment – over 25 programs have received accreditation by the Saudi Commission for Health Specialties (SCFHS). These programs cover diverse areas such as medicine, surgery, nursing, clinical pharmacy, and medical sciences.

This achievement reflects a commitment to fostering a robust postgraduate medical education system through Saudi Board programs, specialized fellowships, and Health Academy initiatives. With this focus on continuous learning and development, DSFH-J is well-positioned to spearhead advancements in healthcare delivery.

20 Years of Laser Surgery Excellence

Innovation is at the core of DSFH-J's mission. The Ophthalmology Department recently celebrated 20 years of pioneering laser surgery techniques.  In just May and June of this year, the department successfully performed over 70 laser eye surgeries. This milestone underscores the hospital's unwavering commitment to utilizing cutting-edge technology to deliver exceptional eye care to patients.

Revolutionizing Emergency Care: State-of-the-Art ER Rooms

Understanding that timely access to quality care is crucial in emergencies, DSFH-J has unveiled a groundbreaking initiative – 28 brand-new, state-of-the-art ER rooms. These innovative spaces boast a closed-door design, prioritizing patient privacy and comfort during a stressful time. Equipped with the latest emergency room technology,  these rooms promise to significantly enhance DSFH-J's ER experience and ensure even better patient satisfaction.

Leading the Way in Community Support

Healthcare doesn't exist in a vacuum. Dr. Soliman Fakeeh Hospital recognizes the importance of giving back to the community. Recently, a revolutionary kiosk was inaugurated in collaboration with Albir Society CEO, Eng. Mohialdin Hakami.  This innovative kiosk empowers patients and visitors to make instant donations to various causes, streamlining the process of supporting those in need.
