As the Rivers State Newspaper Corporation (RSNC) marks its golden jubilee in December this year, the management of the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital (RSUTH) has hailed the corporation for sustaining the ideals of its founding fathers.
The Chief Medical Director of the hospital, Dr Aaron Friday, who said this during a courtesy visit by the management of the corporation to his office in Port Harcourt, yesterday, said The Tide has come to stay, adding that even in the next 100 years,The Tide would still remain.
Aaron said the teaching hospital management was happy that the corporation has become a one-stop shop in the printing industry.
He said Rivers State University Teaching Hospital was one institution that has undergone tremendous changes since its foundation in 1925.
Aaron said owing to its expansion, especially by the current administration in the state, the hospital now renders services in all fields of medicine.
The CMD said the medical institution’s areas of coverage have also expanded beyond Rivers State to the entire South-South and the South-East.
“The hospital is innovating and has continued to upgrade more equipment coming in”, he said.
Aaron said the health institution has gone digital, stressing that its services in many areas, were now paperless.
He pledged the preparedness of the institution to support the Rivers State Newspaper Corporation in areas that would be mutually beneficial.
Earlier, the General Manager of the Rivers State Newspaper Corporation, Chief Ernest Chinwo, said the visit was to seek for mutual partnership between the health institution and the corporation.
Chinwo said apart from the regular publication of The Tide Newspapers, the corporation also undertakes general printing jobs, adding that no aspect of printing was alien to the corporation.
The general manager also sought the support of the hospital management for the 50th anniversary of the corporation.
He commended the hospital management for the quality of services to the society.
