Ayder Comprehensive Specialized Hospital is the largest hospital in Mekele in the Tigray Region and the second largest hospital in Ethiopia.

Description and history

Located in Mekele,[1] the teaching hospital is the largest hospital in the Tigray Region[2] and the second largest hospital in Ethiopia.[3] It is one of only a few referral hospitals in Ethiopia.[3]

The hospital opened in 2008 and serves a population of over 8 million people.[3] The hospital's services include: newborn care,[4] dialysis, and cancer care.[5] It is the only one in the Tigray Region with surgery facilities[6] and, in 2015, became the only hospital with magnetic resonance imaging facilities.[3]

In 2022, the hospital had an estimate of 3,600 staff[5] with Kibrom Gebreselassie as the Chief Executive Director.[6]

In 2020, during the Tigray War, the hospital's staff struggled to keep up with the influx of trauma patients and was running low in surgical supplies.[7] In 2022, over 60 patients with kidney disease died due to lack of medical supplies and 81 patients died due to a lack of medical oxygen.[5] The hospital remained short of medical supplies in January 2023, after the war ended.[8]
