HONG NGOC GENERAL HOSPITAL AWARDED PRESTIGIOUS INTERNATIONAL HEALTHCARE ACCREDITATION FROM ACHS

- Ensure maximum rights and benefits for patients according to WHO declaration.

- Upgrading to the world’s most advanced medical equipment and technology to support diagnosis and treatment.

- Ensuring radiation safety and comprehensively optimizing the infection control system. 100% of operating rooms are equipped with air filtration systems to ensure air standards are at a safe level.

- Standard drug management system ensures optimal drug storage process, safe and appropriate drug dispensing.

- Set up a hospital-wide alarm system and build “CODE BLUE” teams to promptly rescue patients in case of medical emergencies.

Mr. Timothy Gardner – Lead Assessor from ACHS – stated: "Our team of experts highly appreciates Hong Ngoc General Hospital for fully meeting international standards on the quality of medical equipment, ensuring early detection of risks affecting patient safety, the alarm system helps timely emergency intervention and preventive procedures to minimize the infection rate throughout the hospital. These are both fundamental and essential elements that any hospital must meet in order to advance toward globally recognized healthcare quality standards."

Despite adding many new criteria with more stringent requirements, Hong Ngoc General Hospital still excellently achieved ACCREDITATION certification - the highest possible achievement level for ACHS accreditation. Compared to the two lower achievement levels - Foundation and Recognition - the Accreditation level is awarded to healthcare institutions that have made significant progress and demonstrated advanced performance on their quality improvement journey. In addition, the hospital has also demonstrated its ability to meet assessment criteria under the Marked Achievement (MA) category - an important motivator for ongoing quality improvement efforts.

It is noted that the ACHS International Hospital Accreditation (EQuIP7) is valid for three years and will be reassessed in 2027. However, with the strict requirements of one of the world's leading medical quality assessment organizations, the hospital will have to excellently undergo annual assessments to maintain the validity of the certificate, ensuring that quality commitments are always maintained at the highest level for patients.
