We took it to the streets to hear what Jamaicans think about paternity fraud, “JACKET”, and its impact on men, children and families. We heard raw stories and strong opinions. Should the Government mandate DNA testing at birth, or is that going too far? Share your thoughts.

En route to our western parishes to look at the aftermath of Hurricane Melissa. At this time, we’ve coordinated with the NWA and JDF to have patients moved to Mandeville from Black River. Once we’ve assessed the situation, we’ll be able to act and provide the necessary care.

KPH opened in 1776, & frankly, it’s old. That's why we're implementing a program to overhaul KPH & refurbish & rehabilitate the facility. Additionally, the St-Joseph property will become an annex of the KPH, & hold an additional 100 beds. Let's give you the healthcare you deserve
