RS Bunda Jakarta has begun construction on a skybridge designed to link its two main hospital facilities, RSIA Bunda Jakarta and RS Bunda Jakarta. This initiative aims to create a more cohesive healthcare ecosystem, prioritizing patient safety, seamless clinical integration, and improved accessibility for everyone using the hospital's services.
Dr. Ivan Rizal Sini, the Chairman of PT Bundamedik Tbk, stated that the skybridge reflects the company's growth philosophy, which centers on ensuring all existing services function as a unified whole, ultimately focused on patient needs. "This skybridge is a reflection of how we view growth. It's not just about adding new facilities, but ensuring all the services we've built over 50 years work as a complete unit and ultimately focus on patient needs," he said.
The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Pramono Anung Wibowo, who highlighted the hospital's historical connection with Jakarta residents. He expressed hope that the new skybridge would significantly contribute to patient comfort and enhance the overall quality of life in Jakarta. "Hopefully, with this connecting bridge, Bunda Hospital can make a greater contribution to the health and comfort of the community, making the quality of life in Jakarta much better," Pramono remarked.
Agus Heru Darjono, President Director of PT Bundamedik Tbk, added that the commitment to superior service aligns with RS Bunda Jakarta's core motto: "All Life, All Care, Because Family Matters." The skybridge will notably improve access to two key services that were previously physically separated: the National Neonatal Referral Center, equipped with 14 NICU beds and a Family Integrated Care program, and the hospital's pioneering Robotic Surgery unit.
