Hermosillo IMSS University Hospital Begins Full Operations

State officials say the facility will ease strain on public clinics in Sonora.

Overview

  • Running at full capacity, the hospital has already delivered more than 8,000 consultations.
  • The facility is sized to serve more than 122,000 IMSS beneficiaries in the Hermosillo area.
  • Core capacity includes 134 beds, five operating rooms, an adult ICU, an emergency department, 10 specialty clinics, a lab, and imaging suites.
  • The site employs 1,135 staff and will train more than 100 medical students each year as Sonora’s first university hospital.
  • Officials plan a clinical and surgical simulation center to break ground this month, a 133‑million‑peso project that would be Mexico’s third and expand hands‑on training without patient risk.
