YGIA Polyclinic Private Hospital was established in 1983 in the heart of Limassol and commenced its operations in 1987.
In 2007, following major renovations and an expansion of our building facilities, we have increased our capacity to 128 fully-equipped beds, extended the number of operating theatres to 12, established and extended the range of services of the Clinical Laboratory, Radiology Departments (X-Ray, MRI/ CT), launched a multi-dynamic Intensive Care Unit (ICU), 24/7 Accident & Emergency Department, Maternity - Gynaecology and Paediatric Departments.
Since 16th of June 2011, a state-of-the-art Heart Catheterisations Center was inaugurated, enabling us to be the single 24/7 acute PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) service provider in Cyprus.
In our force, there is a range of fully equipped ambulance services to better respond to 24/7 emergencies.
As the largest and most reputable private hospital in Cyprus, we have such a modern infrastructure which rivals those of Western Europe and the USA.
We have been awarded in 2012 with the dual award of Accreditation and Quality Certification by CHKS, the leading provider of Healthcare Accreditation and Quality Assurance in the UK, for the overall quality of the health services we provide.
We maintain a Cyber Essentials Plus Accreditation and Cyber Essentials Certification by 2-SEC and Crest, under the UK Government Cyber Essentials Scheme Test Specification, for our Cyber Security technical processes and controls.
We also hold Certifications based on the International Standards of ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management System), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management System), ISO 15189:2012 (Medical Laboratories – Requirements for Quality and Competence), ISO 27001:2013 (Information Security Management System) and ISO 45001:2018 (Occupational Health and Safety Management System) and ISO 22000:2018 (Food Safety Management System).
We have adopted an open model of operation allowing licensed physicians that have undergone a screening process and have been approved as Associated Doctors to gain practicing privileges with us. Currently, we maintain cooperation with more than 200 distinguished Associated Doctors, who are pioneers in a wide range of medical specialties both in Cyprus and abroad.
We employ more than 460 medical, nursing, paramedical, administrative, and operational full-time staff, making us one of Cyprus’ largest employers. Many of our staff members are multilingual, thus offering transcultural patient care. Caring and attending for each of our guest’s needs is cultivated via a systematic, planned, and continuous enhancement of our staff’s knowledge, competences, and skills.
