Objectives: Evaluate the human resources and equipments at Thanh Hoa Hospital of Traditional Medicine and Pharmacy in 2022; Describe the disease pattern characteristics of the patients who came for examination and treatment at Thanh Hoa Hospital of Traditional Medicine and Pharmacy from 2017 to 2021.  

Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study. Subjects: hospital employees, equipment and facilities at Thanh Hoa Hospital of Traditional Medicine and Pharmacy; Medical records of outpatient and inpatient treatment from 2017 to 2021.

Results: The proportion of employees with postgraduate qualifications accounted for 17.4%, while the rate of employees with university degrees accounted for 25.9%, and employees with college and associate degrees accounted for 55.2%. Employees with 10-15 years of seniority accounted for 21.9%, the rate of employees from 15 years or more is 34.3%. The rate of regular employees is 95.5%, and the rate of contract workers accounts for 4.5%. The hospital is relatively fully equipped with equipment, but only a little high-tech equipment. The number of annual outpatients at the hospital was relatively small, less than 20 per year. The proportion of patients aged 60-79 accounted for the highest rate, with over 50% over the years. The ratio of patients under 30 accounts for a tiny percentage over the years, about less than 3%. Inpatients with residences in rural areas accounted for a higher proportion. Polyarthritis was the disease that accounts for the highest rate over the years. Other conditions, such as hemiplegia and back pain, also account for a high rate. The rate of cured or remission was always very high over the years, up to over 95%. There have been no deaths from 2017 to 2021 at the hospital. The referral rate for medical examination and treatment was always shallow, from 0-1.8% over the years.

Conclusions: Employees with college and associate degrees accounted for the highest percentage. Most patients were inpatients with the highest rate of musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases. The hospital is exceptionally well-equipped but only has a few high-tech equipment.
