IBN Sina Hospital

IBN Sina Hospital

Ibn Sina Hospital is a hospital in Baghdad, Iraq.

It was originally built by four Iraqi doctors: Modafar Al Shather, Kadim Shubar, Kasim Abdul Majeed and Claimant Sarqis in the mid 1960s. It was seized at a minuscule price and used by Saddam Hussein, his family, and the elite of Baath Party. Uday Hussein was hospitalized there after being wounded in a failed assassination attempt in the mid 1990s. Although it was built as a top notch facility, its owners provided free medical care and hospitalization to all Iraqis that were unable to afford treatment.Fact|date=July 2008

Currently the Green Zone encompasses the hospital; it is run by the United States Armed Forces mainly supported by the US Army and its rotating Combat support hospital units as an emergency facility for critically wounded soldiers and civilians. It has treated suspected and confessed insurgents; the emergency room sees an average of 300 trauma cases a month.

Ibn Sina was particularly made famous through the widely viewed HBO documentary "Baghdad ER", when occupied by the US Army 86th CSH which was later replaced by the 10th CSH.
