An overview of hospitals where foreigners can seek emergency care (and more).
1️⃣ VinMec International Hospital
VinMec in Da Nang 🏥 is a modern, multidisciplinary clinic providing high-quality medical services, including emergency and urgent care.
The hospital provides emergency care to foreigners, is staffed with English-speaking personnel and meets international standards. Emergency hospitalization, traumatology and 24-hour diagnostic services are available here.
2️⃣ Family Hospital
A private multidisciplinary clinic providing a wide range of medical services, including emergency care.
The hospital caters to international patients and offers emergency care, however the level of English language support may be limited compared to international hospitals such as VinMec.
It is one of the largest private multidisciplinary hospitals in Da Nang, providing emergency and urgent care, including to foreign patients.
The hospital welcomes foreigners, provides 24/7 emergency care and has English-speaking staff, although English proficiency may vary.
4️⃣ Hospital 199
Da Nang Hospital 199 is a public hospital under the Ministry of Public Security that provides emergency and routine medical care including trauma, surgery and internal medicine.
The hospital provides emergency care to foreigners, but the service is primarily aimed at local patients. English-speaking staff may be limited, and the conditions of stay are simpler than in private clinics (for example, VinMec or Hoan My).
Treatment fees are usually lower than in international hospitals, but it is better to check insurance claims in advance.
Suitable for a budget check-up.
Thank you for this very helpful overview of emergency care options in Da Nang! It's crucial information for any traveler or expat. Reading this made me think about a similar guide I came across for Seoul, which also had some great insights on navigating healthcare abroad. I hope it's okay to share a link here for context, as it might be useful for readers who also travel to other parts of Asia. Sorry for the link, but it just makes it clearer what I'm referring to.
My question is about the practical side of things: based on your experience with the hospitals mentioned, which one would you say has the most efficient process for a foreigner who doesn't speak Vietnamese, especially for something like a minor injury? The guide I mentioned at https://pillintrip.com/fr/article/where-to-find-first-aid-in-seoul-complete-guide-for-international-travelers emphasized the importance of pre-calling to check English support, which seems like a great tip. Did you find that necessary in Da Nang, or are the international hospitals like VinMec consistently well-staffed with English speakers around the clock?
