The general hospital will be built on 6,000m² of land, as part of the city’s master plan for 2030, with a vision towards 2050.

The location, in the west of the city, was designed as a key urban space capable of accommodating 5,000 people in connection with the soon-to-be-built Lien Chieu Port and logistics centre, the North-South Expressway and railway system, and hi-tech industrial zones.

The new hospital in the Golden Hills urban area will join the city’s existing healthcare service system of 11 hospitals with 1,000 doctors and more than 620 consulting rooms and medical care centres.

Last year, VinGroup opened the 222-bed private VinMec Da Nang hospital with a total investment of 53 US$ million.

The Ministry of Health also plans to build a world-class pediatric hospital in Cam Le District, with an estimated price tag of 300 million US$.

The city has four international standard hospitals including the Da Nang General Hospital, the Family Hospital, Hoan My-Da Nang and VinMec Da Nang.

Da Nang has called for investment in 68 projects in the fields of technology, education and training, healthcare, tourism and services, trade, infrastructure, agriculture, entertainment and environment in the 2017 - 2020 period.
