How our people go above and beyond to touch lives and transform care.
Joining The Global Race To Vaccinate
In support of mass vaccination efforts around the world, our teams in Malaysia, Singapore, India, Turkey and Hong Kong have stepped up to assist the various governments in administrating COVID-19 vaccine to residents.
IHH Healthcare Malaysia > Our flagship hospital Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur is one of the first private hospitals appointed by Malaysia’s Ministry of Health to administer vaccine for some 2,500 frontliners from private hospitals and clinics in Kuala Lumpur area. Also supporting phase 1 of the national vaccination programme is Pantai Hospital Klang, our second hospital in Malaysia to set up a vaccination centre on its premises for frontliners from private hospitals and clinics in Klang.

Acibadem Healthcare > All 16 Acibadem hospitals in Turkey have started vaccinating our employees as well as members of the public since 14 January, giving out an average of more than 1,000 doses a day.
