Introduction

The elements of Pak Field Level II Hospital reported in the mission area in December 2003. After transit stay at Monrovia the entire setup moved to Tubmanburg , Bomi County. The hospital started to function in Liberia Government Hospital, Tubmanburg building in January 2004. It was built by a Liberia Mining Company in 1950 and later on Liberian Government took over the management of the hospital but could not sustain the functionality of the institution due to implacable civil war. With the establishment of Pak Field Hospital the quality and level of health care to the Liberians has improved remarkably, as the medical outfit is indiscriminately rendering quality consultation and medication to the patients, without compromising its operational obligations with UNMIL. This humane agenda of the Pak Field Hospital not only earned goodwill of the war shattered Liberians but also helped UNMIL to pursue its mandate in Liberia.
