History

In 1979, Krathum Baen opened as a community hospital by the Tha Chin River with a capacity of 30 beds. The local community financially supported the construction of the hospital. The hospital was gradually expanded, with a five-storey building opened by Princess Sirindhorn in 2009. It became classified as a general hospital in 2012. Due to the large numbers of industrial estates and factories in the area, occupational medicine is a focus of the hospital. As of March 2024, it has a capacity of 300 beds.
