Using Harvard Medical School’s top-grade management techniques, skills and talents, Huashan Hospital is preparing to establish an international united hospital, the Shanghai Morning Post reported today.
The united hospital will be launched by the second half of the year, and it is expected to become the 16th of its kind around the world that is affiliated to Harvard Medical School, according to the third International Symposium on Medicine in the 21st Century held yesterday.
"We plan to invite the experts of Harvard as academic or counseling directors of the hospital," said Xu Jianguang, chief with Huashan Hospital, adding that these experts will be evaluated according to their capabilities in attracting patients, fostering talents and performing quality medical services.
Highly-qualified personnel of Harvard Medical School will be recruited to act as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the united hospital, and young experts and academicians will be sent to Harvard for overall and systematic trainings, Xu pointed out.
The diagnosis process, medical service ideology, management modes and medical environment layout of the new hospital will meet the international service standard in a bid to satisfy the high-end requirements of patients, Xu stressed.
Huashan Hospital is currently making full preparations for the construction.
