KINGSTON, Jamaica — The JEP Group on Labour Day returned to Kingston Public Hospital (KPH) for a second consecutive year, mobilising close to 200 volunteers to refurbish sections of the hospital’s busy Outpatient Department as part of its ongoing corporate social responsibility programme.

The initiative, carried out under the theme “The Work Continues”, brought together employees of the energy company, scholarship recipients, strategic partners and members of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) for painting, cleaning and restoration works at the facility.

KPH said the outpatient department serves roughly 3,500 patients daily, making it one of the institution’s busiest areas. The project follows last year’s Labour Day effort by the company, which focused on refurbishing the hospital’s Renal Unit.
