Detail InformationEdit

Tung Wah Hospital is a hospital in Hong Kong under the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals. Located above Possession Point, at 12 Po Yan Street in Sheung Wan, it is the first hospital established in Colonial Hong Kong for the general public in the 1870s. The hospital was declared for construction on March 26, 1870 under the “Tung Wah Hospital Incorporation Ordinance”.
The push for the construction of the facility began when the British Colony’s Registrar General saw an indiscriminate mix of the dead and dying cuddled together in the nearby Kwong Fook I-tsz, a small temple built at Tai Ping Shan Street. The large number of deaths were in part due to the arrival of the upcoming Third Pandemic of bubonic plague from China. Though it was not declared an official establishment until 1872.
The hospital was subsidized by the government at a price of HKD 45,000 along with HKD 15,000 in land grant. With 633 beds, including 494 for in-patients, 93 for day patients and 46 rehabilitation day places, it is the second largest general hospital in Hong Kong West Cluster. The Main Block of Tung Wah Hospital is graded as Grade III historic building. It is affiliated with the Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, while the University of Hong Kong provide clinical attachment opportunities for its medical students.
