Prime minister checks on health, education, community projects in Zarqa


Prime Minister Jafar Hassan on Sunday inspected a number of health, educational, vocational and sports facilities in the districts of Rusiefeh, Hashimiyeh and Qasabeh as part of his ongoing field visits.

The tour included follow-ups on sites he had previously visited, as well as inspections of newly identified locations, according to the Jordan news agency, Petra.

At Zarqa Government Hospital, and in the presence of the minister of health, the prime minister reviewed progress on the expansion of the intensive care unit and the increase in bed capacity, projects he had directed during a visit nearly two months ago.

He listened to feedback from patients and staff, directing the establishment of a cardiac surgery unit, the provision of a designated waiting area for visitors, and the acceleration of scheduled maintenance works to enhance services provided to citizens.

In Rusiefeh, Hassan visited Jabal Al Amir Faisal Basic School, where he had previously instructed a comprehensive maintenance plan covering several government schools in the region.

Accompanied by the minister of education, the premier reviewed the school’s current condition. Serving more than 1,500 students across 27 classrooms operating in two shifts, the school recently underwent complete maintenance works, including the installation of a solar energy system and the construction of a five-a-side playground.

The Prime minister directed additional upgrades, including new student facilities, playgrounds, open spaces and a garden, and instructed that these facilities be made available to the local community during public holidays.
