"Patients will be able to read English language newspapers and even enjoy their own cuisine."

The hospital is discussing with the Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad (BOCOG) what types of dishes should be served, he said.

Utmost care will be taken to offer a good selection of quality food, Xu said. "All food and medical services will be provided according to the strict requirements of BOCOG."

More than 400 doctors and nurses have already undergone language and other special training, Peng said. Some other employees, too, will be trained in foreign languages and customs of other nations.

"Since the establishment of the hospital, we have provided medical services to people from 160 countries and regions, so we are confident of fulfilling our duty," he said.

The China-Japan Friendship Hospital opened in 1984 and is a leading international hospitals in Beijing. It employs about 1,600 medical staff, from which a 400-strong specialist Olympic team will be selected.
