Inheriting the foundation – Development for public health
As a public hospital of the University of Public Health, Pham Ngoc Thach General Hospital was established on the foundation of the General Clinic of the University of Public Health. From the foundation milestone of 2017 to the official operation of the hospital model in 2024, each step opens a new path, towards the goal of caring for people's health in a comprehensive, responsible and dedicated way.
On May 5, 2017, the Polyclinic of the University of Public Health was established under Decision No. 567/QD-DHYTCC of the Rector of the University of Public Health.
The establishment of the Clinic is the starting point in the development history of the Hospital, laying the foundation for the organization of medical examination and treatment activities in a facility under the University. This is also the premise for gradually developing the general hospital model in the next period.
On June 14, 2022, the Minister of Health issued Decision No. 1516/QD-BYT, establishing Pham Ngoc Thach General Hospital on the basis of reorganizing the General Clinic of the University of Public Health.
As a public health non-business unit under the University of Public Health, the establishment of the Hospital marks an important transformation in the organizational model, creating a basis for the development of medical examination and treatment activities and community service.
On May 16, 2024, Pham Ngoc Thach General Hospital officially came into operation after being granted a license for medical examination and treatment by the Ministry of Health and completing the registration of a seal form as prescribed.
This milestone realizes the transition from a general clinic to a general hospital, opening the way to directly perform the function of medical examination and treatment according to the scope of licensing.
The hospital is under the leadership and direct management in all aspects of the University of Public Health; the management of medical expertise of the Ministry of Health and the management of functional agencies in accordance with the law.
Inheriting the established foundation, Pham Ngoc Thach General Hospital determines the development journey associated with the responsibility to serve patients. That development aims at professional quality, thoughtfulness in the care and experience of medical examination and treatment of each citizen.
With the spirit of "Comprehensive care – Responsibility and dedication", the Hospital aims to build a reliable health care address, where every step of development begins with the needs of the patient and the goal of contributing to public health.
