UHWI BIENNIUM BUDGET / Dr. Trevor McCartney Deputy Dean F.M.S. – UWI-Mona Medical Chief of Staff - UHWI Acting C.E.O. – UHWI Acting C.E.O. – UHWI Presentation to the UWI Technical Advisory Committee February 15, 2013 St. Vincent and the Grenadines

The University Hospital of the West Indies envisions itself as a dynamic, environmentally safe, adequately equipped organization with trained and highly motivated staff dedicated to promoting teaching, research and the delivery of the highest quality health care to meet the needs of the region.

 From its inauguration, the function of the hospital was identified as being a center of excellence as a teaching hospital for research and for secondary and tertiary level medical care which is not available elsewhere in Jamaica and neighboring Caribbean territories.  These Budget Estimates for 2013 – 2015 were prepared with this in mind and the acknowledgement of the challenging economic and financial circumstances of the Government of Jamaica and other contributing Territories.  Expenditures will be controlled by the implementation and use of new technology including reengineering of existing operations.

 The need to continue the rehabilitation of the sixty-four year old physical plant and the need to replace obsolete equipment.  The increased demand on services.  The past fiscal year has seen the hospital experiencing a significant financial burden due to a number of factors: 1.The need to increase Security through the introduction of technology and an increase of the security staff.

2.Increase in the cost of supplies due to the continued devaluation of the Jamaican dollar, particularly the Medical & Pharmaceutical supplies which are mostly imported. 3.The need for emergency funding not supported by the budget to provide repairs and maintenance of outdated equipment.
