A BUCKS healthcare company has got government backing to build three hospitals - in Oman.
International Hospitals Group (IHG), which has its UK headquarters in Denham, has won a contract for the construction of the Salalah, Suwaiq and Khasab hospitals in the Middle Eastern country.
The bid was supported by the government’s UK Export Finance, which provided more than £500 million worth of support.
The three hospitals will provide intensive care, emergency services and specialist baby care.
The new projects will reportedly support jobs throughout the UK throughout the duration of the build.
IHG will provide a full design, construction and services package for all three hospitals.
Work will also include the construction of emergency power systems, maintenance facilities, roads and other associated infrastructure.
An IHG spokesman said: “International Hospitals Group is most grateful that UK Export Finance is supporting the development of these three hospitals, which will enhance the provision of healthcare in the Sultanate of Oman.”
