Health Ceiling Collapses at Rural Hospital After Heavy Rain Amidst Ongoing Budget Crisis
UPDATE Ceiling Collapse at Bung Khla Hospital Sparks Urgent Repairs Pictures courtesy of Matichon. Local health authorities have confirmed that emergency repairs are underway at Bung Khla Hospital, following a ceiling collapse caused by heavy rainfall. The incident occurred after persistent downpours on 5 July, which overwhelmed the building’s inadequate drainage system. The collapse affected the Emergency Room (ER) and Dental Department, prompting temporary suspension of dental services. However, all patients and medical staff were unharmed and emergency services have already resumed. Dr Phamon Darun, Chief of the Bueng Kan Provincial Public Health Office, visited the hospital on 7 July alongside Deputy Chief Dr Surapong Laksawut to assess the damage. Their inspection revealed that the ceiling failure resulted from rainwater overflow due to undersized drainage outlets, around the hospital’s two-storey accident and emergency building. Water had seeped through structural cracks, weakening the ceiling panels. In addition to the poor drainage, Dr Phamon cited a lack of technical maintenance staff as a contributing factor to the incident. Despite this, he assured the public that repairs were not extensive and could be carried out with an estimated budget of less than 10,000 baht. Work on the ER ceiling has already begun. In terms of future improvements, the hospital plans to enlarge the rainwater drainage channels to prevent similar incidents during heavy rainfall. Dr Phamon stated that funding for this work would be coordinated with Bung Khla Hospital and other agencies. When asked whether public donations would be needed, Dr Phamon was clear: “There is no need for donations. The required funds are available.” Some dental equipment was damaged, including a dental drill and ultrasonic scaler, though the main dental unit remains operational. Replacement tools will be procured using provincial or central budgets if necessary. The Emergency Room has already reopened, and dental services are expected to resume on 8 July. Bung Khla Hospital is a small 30-bed community facility serving three subdistricts and 25 villages, with a population of around 14,000. The hospital has just one full-time doctor, Dr Chaiphruek Woraroemsakul, who also serves as the hospital director. It is supported by 23 nurses, with two additional doctors rotating monthly from other hospitals arranged by the provincial health office. Adapted by Asean Now from Matichon 2025-07-08 -
