TAGUIG CITY, June 29 (PIA) – Taguig City’s hospital gets an upgrade. The city government of Taguig has dramatically improved the scope and quality of service at the Taguig-Pateros District Hospital (TPDH) by recently opening its fully furnished Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
“We simply owe it to our constituents. This upgrade in medical treatment is a testament to our determination to give Taguigeneos the best service that their local government can deliver,” Taguig Mayor Lani Cayetano said.
According to the city government, the ICU at the TPDH is a special department that provides intensive treatment with brand new medical equipment. The ICU facility has sections for adults (10 beds), pediatric (6 beds), and newborn (12 beds).
It also caters to patients with severe and life-threatening illnesses and injuries and who require constant and close monitoring from specialists and staff using high-tech equipment and medications. The new ICU will be manned by highly trained doctors and nurses who specialize in caring for critically ill patients.
TPDH’s bed capacity has been increased over the years. Its ER bed capacity has doubled and it has a refurbished, fully-airconditioned emergency and operating rooms.
Last year, the Department of Health (DOH) recognized TPDH as a Mother-Baby Friendly Hospital. (TAGUIG/RJB/JEG/PIA-NCR)
