Nangarhar province has a large number of facilities, and the survey covered 7 hospitals.<br />

Actually, two facilities proved to be health centers without beds, and could not be considered<br />

as hospitals. Jalalabad has three hospitals <strong>for</strong> a total of 768 beds, and the General <strong>Hospital</strong> of<br />

Public Health is one of the largest in the country.<br />

In terms of total number of beds, Nangarhar province is the second best served in the country,<br />

with a ratio of one bed <strong>for</strong> 1,300 population. However, the beds are not evenly distributed in<br />

the province, and some densely populated districts do not have access to hospital care (Sukh<br />

Rod, Muhmand Dara, Bati Kot), whereas in the Jalalabad district, the bed density is 1 <strong>for</strong> 240<br />

inhabitants.<br />
