The new Toulouse Public Hospital is expected to be completed in five years' time and to open its doors by 2031 . Among the services it will have are four operating rooms, resonance service, two rooms for endoscopes and other procedures, post-anesthesia recovery unit, emergency service and radiology infrastructure. It is expected to have 3,600 operations per year and about 3,000 endoscopes .

These data have been provided by the Basque Government's Health Adviser, Alberto Martínez, during his appearance before the mayors, councillors, trade unions and citizen platforms of Tolosaldea. Arratsaldea will present the project to the public at a public event.

The new centre, which will be built on the land of the parking lot of Iurramendi and which, in the words of the counsellor, will depend on the OSI of San Sebastián, "is one of the priority actions of the Department of Health, for which a budget of 200,000 euros is allocated in the budget of the Basque Government next year for the drafting of the project", he has reported.

He adds that "the aim is to move towards a comprehensive solution that increases the quality of care in the Tolosaldea area, optimizing the use of resources, reducing the distribution of care and ensuring high quality care for the most vulnerable patients ". 

The Head of Health has also reported on the specialties that the new public hospital will have: digestive system, dermatology, endocrinology, gynaecology and obstetrics, neurology, rehabilitation, pneumology, allergy, cardiology, hematology, internal medicine, rheumatology, anesthesiology, general surgery, ophthalmology, otorrinolaringology, traumatology and urology.

The hospital will serve the citizens of Tolosaldea and the needs of the OSI Donostialdea. Until its implementation, changes will be made to the organization of the OSI Tolosaldea to reorganize certain services.

According to the counsellor, the design of the new hospital has been the result of "a thorough analysis of the current and future population of the region, taking as a reference their care needs and hospitalizations", a process in which professionals from the OSI Tolosaldea and specialists from the Donostia University Hospital have participated.
