By mobilizing resources, engaging with local and international partners, and advocating for accessible pediatric healthcare, we work tirelessly to create a sustainable model of medical assistance. Where we work ASSAMEH Birth & Beyond supports multiple pediactric and maternal units across governmental hospitals in Lebanon. Moreover, our primary operations are based at the Beirut Governmental Hospital – Karantina, where we support the pediatric and maternal unit by providing essential treatments, surgeries, and neonatal care. We first equipped the unit in 2015 and have stayed committed to its growth ever since—especially after the Beirut port explosion, when we stepped in to replace the damaged equipment.With the opening of the new building, we further upgraded the facility with new medical equipment. In 2024, we proudly supported the launch of the hospital’s obstetrics department, further expanding access to maternal and neonatal healthcare services. We have also rehabilitated and continue to support the Pediatric Ward within the Department of Mother & Child, the only public pediatric and newborn facility in Beirut. Approach At ASSAMEH Birth & Beyond, we take a holistic and sustainable approach to pediatric healthcare. By supporting the pediatric unit at Beirut Governmental Hospital – Karantina, we assit the hospital in providing neonatal care, pediatric surgeries, and critical treatments to children in need. Our work relies on strong collaborations with hospitals, medical professionals, and international organizations to bridge gaps in Lebanon’s healthcare system. Recognizing that illness affects the entire family, we offer guidance and financial assistance, helping parents navigate their child’s medical journey with dignity and hope. Beyond immediate care, we focus on long-term sustainability, strengthening Lebanon’s public health infrastructure through capacity-building and medical training. At ASSAMEH Birth & Beyond, we don’t just treat patients— we insure that every child has the best experience possible at the hospital.
