KAT General Hospital of Attica

The KAT General Hospital of Attica owes its name to the “449 Rehabilitation Centre for the Injured,” which was founded in 1949 on the initiative of Queen Frederica and with the contribution of Chief Medical Officer N. Vryonis. The Centre’s purpose was to rehabilitate war casualties and reintegrate them professionally into society. After the end of the Civil War, civilians were also admitted as outpatients, while the Centre simultaneously operated as a training institution for Red Cross nurses.
In 1951, the legal entity “Rehabilitation Foundation for the Disabled ‘Saint Paul’” was established. For a period, it was housed together with the 449 KAT and was later renamed the “Hospital for Accidents and Rehabilitation of the Injured and Disabled ‘Apostle Paul.’” In 1962, the construction of the imposing seven-storey building was completed. Today, the hospital has 650 authorised beds and is staffed by 1,400 highly qualified scientific and administrative personnel of various ranks and specialties.
AIGEA AMKE has implemented three major donations to KAT, contributing to the upgrading of its infrastructure and the modernisation of its high-level medical services.

DONATION OF THE NON-PROFIT CIVIL COMPANY AEGEAS

• Supply of blood storage refrigerators for the Blood Donation Department.
• Medical equipment for the Plastic Surgery Clinic and the Burns Unit.
• Renovation of the outpatient clinics.

Renovation of the outpatient clinics.

The Outpatient Department at KAT operates on a 24-hour basis, every day of the year, providing immediate intervention, stabilisation, and more effective treatment for every patient or injured person. AIGEA AMKE undertook its renovation, creating spaces of contemporary design that are functional and welcoming for patients and their companions, as well as for staff.
The Department was fully modernised and, despite the extensive works—which included repainting, replacement of window and door frames, installation of wall protection panels, and a system of 21 screens with centralised information management—it remained fully operational throughout the duration of the project.
