Шаблон:Infobox hospital The Green Memorial Hospital is a non-profit hospital in Manipay, Sri Lanka. It was founded by Dr Samuel Fisk Green in 1848. It is a charitable hospital run by Jaffna Diocese of the Church of South India (JDCSI).

Education

This hospital was the first medical school in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka), and was used by Dr. Green to train more than 60 locals as doctors during his 30-year tenure in Ceylon as part of the American Ceylon Mission. Green Memorial Hospital is the second oldest teaching hospital in South Asia.[1]

Patient care

In the middle of the 20th century, it was a state of the art medical institution that served the rich and the poor alike. Due to the civil war, by 2004 the hospital was in a state of disrepair.[2] It is no longer considered to be a premier medical institution in Jaffna Peninsula in Sri Lanka.[3][4] Numerous repairs and refurbishment were begun in 2017.
