The hospital introduces

The Executive Yuan, Ministry of Health Nantou Hospital consists of 2 sites: Nantou Branch and Chung Hsing Branch. It was established in 1955, and now has a history spanning over 5 decades. During that period, Nantou Hospital underwent a process of transformation with changes in name, subordination and merging with Chung Hsing Hospital. Nevertheless, the Hospital clings tenaciously to the enthusiasm and ideal of serving the residents of Nantou, which is an invariable resolve.
The original name of the Ministry of Health’s Nantou Hospital was Nantou County Hospital. It was established on October 31, 1955. Then it was changed to Nantou Provincial Hospital on July 1, 1980. Later, on July 1, 1999, according to “The Temporary Regulations of Business Organization and Function Adjustment of Taiwan Provincial Government”, its name was changed to “The Executive Yuan, Ministry of Health Nantou Hospital”. In 2002, in accordance with “The Restoration Plan of Hospital Organizational Functions of the Ministry of Health, Executive Yuan”, Chung Hsing Hospital was merged with Nantou Hospital and became The Executive Yuan, Ministry of Health Nantou Hospital. Presently, there are 430 beds in the hospital. There are various departments, for example the Emergency Department, General Internal Department, Cardiology Department, Neurology Department, Psychology Department, Stomach and Intestine Department, Kidney Department, Immunity Rheumatism Department, Metabolism Department, Infection Department, Surgical Department, Urology Department, Orthopedics Department, Neurosurgery Department, Cosmetology Medical Discipline, Pediatrics Department, Gynecology and Obstetrics Department, Ophthalmology Department, Dermatology Department, Dentistry Department, Chinese Medical Department, Rehabilitation Department, etc., along with a Dialysis Center, Sleep Center, and Physical Examination Center. The Hospital also provides outpatient

medical service for residents of Nantou.
In order to provide high quality medical service for over 50 years, the Ministry of Health’s Nantou Hospital, has constantly enhanced its hardware and software, in various aspects, for progressive improvement, with the aim that the Ministry of Health’s Nantou Hospital, has become the best “local”, “renowned” hospital in providing excellent, swift and omni-directional medical service. As regards hardware, in order to extend our service for the residents of Nantou, in May 1981, Nantou Hospital started to construct a 5-storey General Medical Building, which was completed and opened in 1983. Then, in 1992, the original old dormitory was demolished and rebuilt into the present brand new, well-equipped Medical Building, which was officially opened in 2002 to provide better medical service for the public in the Nantou area.
With the aim of enhancing medical quality and ensuring the medical welfare of the public, the Ministry of Health’s Nantou Hospital, strengthened the management of hospital medical procedure. In October 2001, the hospital obtained international quality confirmation “ISO 9001”, as well as SGS international recognition of 2000, and became the first medical institution in Asia to pass the Qualicert, quality certification. Moreover, in July, 2006, the hospital set up the first Sleep Center in the Nantou area, with the quality of a medical center. In September of that year, the Respiratory Room of our Hospital was the first to pass ISO 9001 in the Nantou area.
As we review the past record of the Ministry of Health’s Nantou Hospital, the progress and growth of the hospital are obvious to all. Undoubtedly, the Ministry of Health’s Nantou Hospital will strive more diligently and consistently in providing high quality medical service for residents of Nantou in the future.
