(CTT-Dong Nai) On the afternoon of June 15, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee – Mr. Cao Tien Dung, worked with the delegation of the Ministry of Health on the construction of the 2nd campus of University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City in Long Thanh District, Dong Nai province.
Mr. Le Duc Luan, Deputy Minister of Health, speaking at the meeting.
Provincial leaders suggested the UMP HCMC sending a document with a
drawing attached to the Provincial People's Committee so they could report to
the Standing Board of the Provincial Party Committee. After the procedures are
completed, the Ministry of Health and the school are requested to soon begin
the implementation to keep up with the construction of Long Thanh Airport.
Deputy Minister of Health – Mr. Le Duc Luan, and the school's leader,
the Director of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh city
Hospital, said that the school's current facilities do not meet the needs of
training and medical examination and treatment of patients. Therefore, the
Ministry of Health hopes that Dong Nai province will arrange more land in Tan
Hiep commune and Long Thanh district for the Ministry of Health to invest in
building the University of Medicine and Pharmacy HCMC Hospital, and its 2nd
campus, with a scale of 500 hospital beds in parallel with the construction of
the school's training facility.
Mr. Cao Tien Dung, Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, emphasized that Dong Nai province fully supports this policy of the Ministry of Health and the UMP HCMC. The province very much wishes to have a high-quality hospital in the area to both meet the medical examination and treatment needs of the people and commensurate with the development of the province when Long Thanh Airport comes into operation.
Leaders of the Department of Health looking forward to implementing the school and hospital project in Long Thanh district as soon as possible.
In addition, the new training facility will contribute to training high-quality medical personnel, serving hospitals in the region, including Dong Nai. Thereby, contributing to improving the quantity and quality of medical staff in the province.
Previously, in 2020, Dong Nai province had allocated an area of 19.7 hectares to build a 2nd campus of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City in Tan Hiep commune, Long Thanh district. Now, when the Ministry of Health and the school have a proposal to build a hospital in parallel with building a school, the province will review and adjust the land plan accordingly to facilitate the project implementation. It is expected that the province will allocate another 21 hectares to build the hospital.
Leaders of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment informed about the land area that will be allocated to build the hospital.
