Perspective of investment project to build and expand Bai Chay Hospital.

Bai Chay Hospital is a grade I general medical unit at the provincial level under the Department of Health. In recent years, Bai Chay Hospital has always received the province's attention in investing in infrastructure. Up to now, the hospital has 7 functional buildings ensuring the operation of 42 departments and rooms with 1,050 beds (1,300 actual beds), and more than 900 staff, doctors and nurses. In addition, the hospital has continuously invested in modern and advanced medical equipment and machinery systems such as: 1.5Tesla MRI machine, 128-slice CT Scanner, DSA digital angiography, digital X-ray system, 3D and 4D ultrasound system, smart operating room... At the same time, it focuses on training and fostering human resources, with policies to attract and give special incentives to high-quality human resources. Up to now, the hospital has had a strong team of doctors, meeting the needs of medical examination and treatment, performing many advanced, specialized techniques of the central level, developing advanced techniques, minimally invasive interventions...

However, currently, the number of patients coming for medical examination and treatment at the hospital has exceeded the design standards. On average, the hospital receives about 1,500 - 2,000 patients for medical examination and over 1,100 inpatients every day. This reality puts considerable pressure on facilities, medical staff, and the implementation of high technology. At the same time, it becomes a major barrier to improving the quality of medical examination and treatment.

Faced with the increasing demand for medical examination and treatment of the people, on March 13, 2025, the Provincial People's Committee issued a decision approving the investment project to expand Bai Chay Hospital in Bai Chay Ward, Quang Ninh Province on the basis of a comprehensive review, assessment of current facilities, and careful survey of people's needs. The project includes a treatment building and auxiliary works. The treatment building has 10 floors; of which, the first floor is arranged with a lobby, reception, surgical examination rooms, procedure rooms, thoracic neurology examination room, etc.; the second floor is arranged with an internal medicine - rehabilitation clinic, an ENT clinic, a neurology clinic, etc.; the third floor is arranged with a kidney and endocrine clinic, a respiratory clinic, a digestive clinic, etc.; the fourth floor is arranged with examination service rooms; the fifth floor is arranged with a sampling room, an on-call room combined with receiving and returning results, etc.; The 6th floor will have a consulting room, a regular laboratory, a sterile procedure room, etc. In addition, the project will invest in synchronous interior equipment, surveillance cameras, fire prevention and fighting systems, etc. The project has a total investment of 210 billion VND, of which the cost of medical equipment is up to over 70 billion VND. The project implementation period is from 2025 to 2027.

Doctors at Bai Chay Hospital perform cerebral vascular imaging and intervention using digital subtraction angiography (DSA) system for patients with cerebral infarction.

The project will ensure synchronous, modern facilities and equipment, on par with the region, improve the quality of medical services, continue to deploy advanced techniques, attract good doctors and high-quality human resources, meet the increasing demand for health care, and serve the people comprehensively.

Mr. Nguyen Ba Luong, Zone 1A, Bai Chay Ward said: I have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease so I have to receive long-term treatment at Bai Chay Hospital. In recent times, Quang Ninh province has devoted a large amount of resources to investing in the health sector from facilities, equipment, and human resources at all health levels. Thanks to that, our people have benefited from the province's investment. Therefore, we are very happy and excited that Bai Chay Hospital has invested in an additional building. This will help patients to be examined and treated in a spacious, airy, and airy space. At the same time, it will create maximum conditions for the medical team and doctors to deploy advanced, modern, and high-tech techniques. Thanks to that, patients with serious illnesses can be examined and treated right at the provincial health facility, feel secure in their treatment, and save costs.

Master, Doctor Tran Thanh Luan, Deputy Director of Bai Chay Hospital, said: The investment project to expand Bai Chay Hospital is a great concern of the province and the health sector for the hospital. The expansion is in the direction of modernity, scale, synchronization and meeting the standards of provincial hospitals, ensuring to improve the quality of care and protect people's health. Therefore, we have carefully prepared human resources, arranged appropriate equipment, and built a plan to effectively use the building. In particular, we are researching to establish new departments such as: Department of urology, department of pediatrics, department of oncology testing... thereby providing the best health care for people in the province.
