Cyprus Public Health Services Organization: Measures and Clarifications Regarding Works at Makarios Hospital's Pediatric Oncology Department

The Cyprus Public Health Services Organization (CPHSO) acknowledged the reactions of children and parents regarding the noise from the works at the Pediatric Oncology Department of Makarios Hospital and provided information on the measures taken. Heavy work is carried out after 8:00 am and is interrupted between 1:00 pm and 2:00 pm, while noisy work is avoided on weekends. Water quality tests showed that the water supply network is safe, and water filters have been installed as a precaution. During demolitions, a plumber was constantly present to address any problems. The opening of trenches for pipes was unavoidable and the Department's management had been warned. The works are expected to be completed by 13/12/2026, significantly reducing the noise. Weekly meetings with the entire project team and daily supervision by a CPHSO engineer have been scheduled, in addition to the contractor's supervision.
