Grand Opening of Beau Séjour Clinic: A State-of-the-Art Healthcare Facility in the Ben Arous Governorate
Wednesday, October 5, 2022 – 3:58 PM
In the southeastern suburbs of Tunis, at the eastern edge of the town of Mghira, the newly inaugurated Beau Séjour Clinic marks a significant milestone in regional healthcare. Spanning a vast area of 28,000 square meters, this comprehensive medical center is equipped to handle a wide array of health conditions across all specialties. Surrounded by an extensive healthcare corridor and a beautifully landscaped green space, this multidisciplinary medical facility has been constructed to meet international hospital standards. It features cutting-edge technology supplied by GE Healthcare, specifically designed for versatile adult and neonatal resuscitation, cardiac catheterization, and emergency services.
After six years of development, this brand-new medical complex benefits from the latest technological innovations and adheres to rigorous international standards, as demonstrated by its accreditation through the Canada Health Standards Accreditation Program. This accreditation process ensures that healthcare providers meet high benchmarks and continuously improve the quality of care by aligning with global best practices. Achieving these international standards enables Beau Séjour Clinic to position itself on the global healthcare map, attracting patients not only from Tunisia but also from neighboring countries such as Algeria and Libya, Sub-Saharan Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and even Canada.
To support patient care, Beau Séjour Clinic has a capacity of 188 beds and medical seats, including 22 dedicated to neonatal, pediatric, and adult intensive care. The facility boasts 12 operating theaters, one of which is a central modular operating block and a hybrid operating room for complex procedures. Its infrastructure includes advanced units for invasive diagnostics, such as a cardiac catheterization lab and specialized endoscopy units for gastrointestinal and pulmonary examinations, as well as non-invasive diagnostics—ENT (ear, nose, throat), medical biology, cardiac and rhythmology assessments, and a modern extracorporeal lithotripsy unit. The radiology department is outfitted with cutting-edge imaging technology from GE Healthcare, including a 1.5 Tesla MRI, a 128-slice CT scanner, and state-of-the-art multidisciplinary ultrasound devices.
“This project embodies our vision of providing world-class healthcare in Tunisia and reflects our core values of universality, health, support, governance, ethics, and respect—what we call U.S.A.G.E.R.,” stated Ms. Samia Bouslama, CEO of Beau Séjour Clinic. “We have invested heavily in high-end imaging solutions with the support of GE Healthcare, underlining the vital role that the private sector can play in delivering top-tier health services in Tunisia.”
The clinic’s strategic approach is built around four fundamental pillars:
– A strong patient-centered focus, prioritizing both patients and their families,
– A continuous commitment to quality improvement through ongoing certifications, accreditations, modernization of infrastructure, and expansion of technical capabilities, aiming for recognition at both national and international levels,
– An integration of corporate social responsibility initiatives aligned with sustainable development goals.
The advanced medical facilities at Beau Séjour Clinic will enable comprehensive management of all emergencies and facilitate a full range of diagnostic explorations for numerous conditions, thereby meeting the needs of the Tunisian community for safe, personalized, and patient-centric care.
“We are proud to have been selected by the management of Beau Séjour Clinic to assist with the installation of their new state-of-the-art equipment,” said Mehdi Ferdjioui, CEO for Francophone Africa at GE Healthcare. “Our teams are highly committed to improving access and quality of care across the entire African continent.”
