About Etimesgut Şehit Sait Ertürk Devlet Hastanesi

Etimesgut Şehit Sait Ertürk State Hospital (Etimesgut Şehit Sait Ertürk Devlet Hastanesi) is the Ministry of Health's general hospital for the Etimesgut district in western Ankara. According to its own about page it is the district's only publicly owned inpatient hospital, with 250 registered beds. The hospital's history goes back to a health centre (Sıhhat Merkezi) that operated in the early years of the Republic. It passed to the Ministry of Health in 1990 as Etimesgut State Hospital and for many years was known as Prof. Dr. Celal Ertuğ Etimesgut State Hospital. After the coup attempt of 15 July 2016, the Etimesgut military hospital was also transferred to the ministry, and the hospital was renamed in memory of Infantry Staff Colonel Sait Ertürk, who was killed during the coup attempt. Plans for a new building began in 2015, and the hospital moved into its present modern facility on 15 February 2019. The site covers about 37,000 square metres, with some 36,000 square metres of indoor space and parking for 473 vehicles. The hospital lists 31 intensive care beds, including a newborn intensive care unit, as well as a 40-bed palliative care centre, a dental treatment centre for people with disabilities (with treatment under general anaesthesia when needed), a dialysis unit, endoscopy, and a physical therapy and rehabilitation unit. Attached units include home health care, a community mental health centre and the Şaşmaz district polyclinic. The main building is on Leylak Caddesi in the İstasyon neighbourhood. Appointments and departments are listed on the hospital's official website.
