hospitals are not inherently notable and must meet WP:ORG. this small 23 bed hospital gets 1 gnews hit and mainly directory listings in google. LibStar (talk) 02:12, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep It doesn't help that their website is under construction, but apparently there is some coverage about how they were visited by a national group to address concerns about Thalassaemia patients and treatment: 1. There is discussion of the hospital's (among others) involvement in a medical card agreement with Insurance Companies that allow medical service without customers having to pay with cash: Collaboration of Allied Insurance Co. and Northern Health Corporation to Provide Health Card Service.

 * Also, there appears to be a book titled Hospitals In The Maldives: Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital, Faafu Atoll Hospital, Lhaviyani Atoll Hospital, Thaa Atoll Hospital, which obviously includes potentially important info on the current hospital. However, the book is unavailable and the blurb doesn't include anything helpful.  It seems like it would be a good source, if there was any way to get to it.

 * this doesn't appear to be indepth coverage. discussion about non cash payment, is pretty routine in hospitals all around the world. i fail to see indepth coverage of this 23 bed hospital. LibStar (talk) 03:42, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
 * That book [ is a Wikipedia offprint and cannot be used as a [[WP:CIRCULAR]] source. Sergeant Cribb (talk) 16:58, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
