MONROVIA – The Management of the JFK Medical Center (JFKMC) is pleased to inform the public that significant improvements in service delivery have resolved longstanding issues such as medication and supply shortages, which previously required caregivers to remain nearby to assist patients. With strengthened internal systems, such support is no longer routinely necessary.
To further enhance the safety, cleanliness, and overall care environment at JFKMC, effective June 1, 2025, caregivers and family members will no longer be permitted to stay overnight or reside on the hospital compound. This unauthorized occupancy has led to significant environmental and public health issues, posing serious risks to patients, staff and visitors alike.
While JFKMC deeply values the vital role of family support in the healing process of patients, we kindly remind the public to observe the following hospital guidelines:
* Patient nutrition is a critical part of medical care. Providing food to patients without medical approval is strictly prohibited, as it may compromise their safety and recovery.
* Visiting hours are strictly from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM daily.
These measures are part of our ongoing efforts to improve patient care, uphold public health standards, and safeguard hospital resources. We appreciate the public’s continued cooperation and support.
The Management of the JFK Medical Center reaffirms its commitment to delivering high quality medical care and will ensure that all necessary measures are taken to protect the wellbeing of our patients, staff and visitors. WE URGE THE FULL COOPERATION OF ALL!
We extend sincere gratitude to His Excellency President Joseph Nyuma Boakai for his steadfast commitment to strengthening the health sector. We also thank Dr. Louise M. Kpoto, Minister of Health and Chairperson of the JFK Board of Directors, for her continued leadership and unwavering support.
We further commend the dedication of our clinical and non-clinical staff, whose tireless efforts are driving the ongoing transformation of the Medical Center. Together, we are creating a stronger, safer, and more responsive healthcare environment for all.
