This project is part of the National Emergency Outpatient Project for the period 2025-2030, chaired by the Ministry of Health and sponsored by Vingroup with 1,000 billion VND, aiming to build a modern emergency outpatient network. The event contributes to improving national health capacity and preparing for major international events such as APEC 2027.

At the launching ceremony, Vingroup Corporation handed over 8 ambulances and modern medical equipment to the facility. Each ambulance is equipped with a ventilator, integrated electric shock machine, monitor, portable ultrasound, intubation kit with camera, trauma splint, resuscitation belt, etc.

The vehicle system is designed to be compact, waterproof, dustproof, and vibration resistant, suitable for the specific terrain and climate conditions of coastal and island areas.

The facility has more than 40 doctors, nurses, technicians and ambulance drivers who are professionally trained according to international standards, including: cardiopulmonary resuscitation, multiple trauma treatment, first aid at sea and advanced resuscitation transport...

The basic goal is to reach the scene within 8 minutes of receiving the request. Hotline 115 will be officially activated and put into operation in Phu Quoc from October 10. After receiving the request, the dispatcher will proactively dispatch the nearest ambulance from 3 satellite stations in key areas of Duong Dong, An Thoi, and Ganh Dau to quickly reach the scene and handle the situation in the "golden time" to increase the patient's chance of survival.
