Penang Adventist Hospital recently dedicated two new facilities designed to improve accessibility and provide specialized care for patients and the community.
The hospital launched the Adventist Bakery Express, a drive-thru and pick-up concept offering wholesome, plant-based baked goods. The outlet provides a convenient way for customers to enjoy nutritious products, with quick pick-up services for those on the go and hassle-free pre-orders available via WhatsApp. Leaders said the initiative reflects the hospital’s mission of promoting healthful living while ensuring accessibility.
In addition, the hospital opened the Wound and Stoma Care Room, located on Level 2, Block B. Staffed by a certified wound and stoma care nurse, the room offers specialized services, including stoma pouching and fitting, simple and complex wound dressing, advanced dressing therapy, and counseling and education for patients and their families. Hospital leaders emphasized that the facility was designed to provide professional, compassionate, and personalized care to meet the unique needs of patients on their healing journey.
To further enhance accessibility, a buggy service has been introduced within the hospital compound to assist patients, families, and visitors in moving comfortably between facilities.
With these new facilities, Penang Adventist Hospital continues to strengthen its commitment to providing comprehensive, patient-focused services that support both physical healing and overall well-being.
