Healthcare in Western Sahara[edit]

The healthcare system in Western Sahara is a complex network of hospitals, clinics, and healthcare institutions. This article provides a comprehensive list of the top healthcare facilities in the region.

Overview[edit]

Healthcare in Western Sahara is primarily provided by a mixture of public and private institutions. The public healthcare system is managed by the Ministry of Health, which oversees the operation of hospitals and clinics across the region. Private healthcare institutions also play a significant role, offering a range of services from general practice to specialist care.

Located in Laayoune, Hassan II Hospital is one of the largest and most well-equipped hospitals in Western Sahara. It offers a wide range of medical services, including emergency care, surgery, and specialist treatments.

Smara Hospital[edit]
