Children’s Hospital 1 will become the pediatric medical center of Southeast Asia

With these two new blocks of Children’s Hospital 1, children in Ho Chi Minh City and the southern provinces will feel more comfortable when they come for examination and treatment than before˳ In the future, Children’s Hospital 1 will become the pediatric medical center of Southeast Asia˳

Assoc˳ Prof˳ Dr˳ Nguyen Thanh Hung, director of Children’s Hospital 1, said that the hospital’s board of directors will strive to develop Children’s Hospital 1 into a specialized pediatric medical center in the Southeast region˳ ASIAN˳

Children’s Hospital 1 is a specialized pediatric hospital at the end of the southern region, leading in the development of specialized pediatrics with 5 spearheads:

Specializing in emergency resuscitation, pediatric infectious and epidemic diseases, neonatal pathology, pediatric surgery and pediatric cardiovascular surgery and intervention˳

The hospital’s infrastructure has long been unable to meet the operational and development needs of a pediatric terminal hospital˳

In particular, it was not possible to meet the requirements and tasks assigned by the city leaders and the Ministry of Health to Children’s Hospital 1 to become a specialized pediatric medical center in Southeast Asia˳ ˳

Therefore, putting new blocks into operation helps Children’s Hospital 1 to be more spacious, spacious and modern to serve patients˳

Children’s Hospital 1 blocks were started in 2019˳ According to the approved plan, the hospital has 7 new blocks, each block has 13-15 floors˳

Of these 7 blocks, 3 of them have been completed and put into use˳ That is the Cardiovascular Intervention Center, which has been put into use since 2022, and today inaugurated 2 blocks, the Pediatric Surgery Center and the Neonatal Center˳

It is expected that by 2026, it will continue to complete and put into operation a new block, the Center for Tropical Diseases and Diseases˳

According to Associate Professor Thanh Hung, the birth of new blocks – specialized centers – is an opportunity for the hospital to continue promoting the development of specialized techniques in the coming time˳

Not only promoting the 5 spearhead specialties mentioned above, but also all other specialties in the field of pediatrics, worthy of the leading pediatric hospital in the Southern region and across the country˳ Since then, aiming to become a medical center specializing in pediatrics of Southeast Asia˳

At the inauguration ceremony, Mr˳ Duong Anh Duc, vice chairman of Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee, congratulated Children’s Hospital 1 on making progress in facilities˳

Mr˳ Duc hoped that Children’s Hospital 1 would effectively exploit this new facility to save the lives of many difficult and dangerous children˳

On behalf of the city’s leaders, Mr˳ Duc said the city will accompany and create conditions for the hospital’s medical team to provide the best health care for children˳
