8 tertiary hospitals in Ho Chi Minh City support a strategically located medical facility

According to the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Health , in the context of the locality developing according to the multi-polar multi-center mega-urban model, Vung Tau General Hospital is determined to have a strategic position in terms of health.

This place is not only a healthcare center for more than half a million local residents and a large number of tourists , but also undertakes the task of researching and implementing marine medicine in the near future.

Vung Tau General Hospital was newly invested and put into operation in 2022 with a scale of 420 beds, 24 departments, 600 medical staff and workers. Currently, the Hospital is still facing many difficulties in developing specialties to meet the medical examination and treatment needs of local people.

The signing of cooperation and comprehensive support agreements between Ho Chi Minh City's end-level hospitals to help improve the capacity of Vung Tau General Hospital is a very important step to standardize professional capacity, improve management, and increase the hospital's autonomy in handling serious cases.

This also contributes to creating a multi-polar, uniform quality healthcare system in Ho Chi Minh City in the new situation.
