According to the plan of the Department of Health, on September 3, 2025, specialists such as: Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, General Surgery Department, Pediatrics Department, Anesthesia and Resuscitation Department... will depart to work at the Con Dao Military-Civilian Medical Center.
With the viewpoint of "No one should be left behind, even in the most remote place", the rotation program for specialists to work in Con Dao launched by the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Health is not only an action with professional significance, but also a strong message about the service spirit of the Ho Chi Minh City Health Sector after the merger: Ho Chi Minh City Health Sector not only expands geographically but also spreads a sense of responsibility to the most remote areas such as Con Dao.
The program has received strong response and spread from medical staff in the whole industry, especially leading general and specialized hospitals. With this activity, even if the geography is as remote as Con Dao, people here and tourists will have access to professional and quality medical services, this is a practical action demonstrating the orientation of comprehensive and fair development in the field of health care.
In addition to the long-term and continuous rotations of specialists, the city's health sector also implemented short-term medical examinations and treatments of specialized hospitals in the city such as the Eye, Dentistry, ENT, ENT... The first phase also took place in September 2025 to provide oral care for students under the management of the Central Dentistry Hospital of Ho Chi Minh City.
In addition, a mobile blood bank was also established at the Con Dao Military-Civilian Medical Center deployed by Hung Vuong Hospital to ensure emergency care, obstetric intervention and surgery. In addition, Nguyen Tri Phuong Hospital will be responsible for establishing an artificial dialysis system, Binh Dan Hospital will be responsible for establishing a standard operating room process... All will be coordinated by specialists under the direction and support of hospital leaders.
Another important activity that the leaders of the Department of Health have ordered for the doctors to rotate is training on updating professional knowledge and transferring techniques to medical staff of the Con Dao Military-Civilian Medical Center. Strengthen connections and remote consultations with experts from end-line hospitals when encountering complex cases.
