History
[edit]Plans to increase healthcare provision for the Lat Krabang district and Eastern Bangkok started in the mid-1970s. Eastern Bangkok was then an agricultural area with a significant number of poisonous snakes in the vicinity. Incidents meant locals had to travel long distances into the city to access proper treatment as the only health stations in the area did not have sufficient capacity to treat them. On 15 July 1977, Khunying Rung Kantarat, donated approximately 86,500 square metres of land to King Bhumibol Adulyadej in commemoration of Princess Sirindhorn's graduation from Chulalongkorn University. This area was used for the construction of a larger health station, which today houses the Ban Phichitchai Drug Rehabilitation Center.[3]
In 1991, construction started on a larger hospital building which was named "Sirindhorn Hospital" in commemoration of Princess Sirindhorn. It was completed and opened on 1 October 2002 with a capacity of 120 beds. The hospital has since been expanded to a capacity of 345 beds.[4] It received hospital accrediation on 13 June 2017.[5]
