Hospitals and Care Facilities

Phuket Town has
three modern hospitals that offer 24-hour emergency medical services
with patient transfer services to larger hospitals located in
Bangkok and Hat Yai.
In addition, the Phuket hospitals are linked to
SOS International
for medical assisted homeward flights.
 Most
hotels and guest houses are linked with a 24-hour medical
service as well.
Ambulance services are available if needed and in
Patong the Kathu Hospital has nurses available to treat minor
medical ailments and an ambulance service for the more serious
medical conditions.
Every year more than 2 million overseas tourists
come to Phuket for holidays. A certain number of them get sick and
some suffer from accidents. Some people may expect language barriers
when people of 60 nationalities are treated in Phuket Hospitals but
most of these problems are kept to a minimum.

English is widely used as a second
language as well as up to 8 other major languages. The Hospitals
have good connections to the global network of insurance companies,
air ambulance services, doctors and hospitals in many countries.
This makes the repatriation of International Patients always a
smooth process in case such a move is necessary.
