The Taguig–Pateros District Hospital (TPDH) is a public hospital located in Western Bicutan, Taguig, Philippines. It is classified as a Level 1 hospital by the Department of Health.[1]

History

The Taguig–Pateros District Hospital was established by virtue of Republic Act No. 7842, which was passed into law on December 16, 1994, as a 100-bed hospital under the Department of Health.[2] The hospital was turned-over to the City of Taguig in September 2006 by virtue of Executive Order No, 567, s. 2006.[3] It is one of the two city-owned hospital, the other being the Taguig City General Hospital.

In 2016, TPDH opened its intensive care unit (ICU), with 10 beds for adults, 6 for children, and 12 for newborns.[4] In 2019, the Out-Patient Department of TPDH was inaugurated.[5]

Facilities

TPDH was expanded in 2022 with the construction of the Taguig Center for Women and Children, a new five-storey building that focuses on women and children's health, including chemotherapy and breast clinics, as well as a drop-in center for social hygiene.[6] It contains the city's human milk bank.[7]
