Historical background

After the First World War, a high increase of tuberculosis and pulmonary diseases was witnessed and the Central Police Station in the East was converted into a hospital.
Flacq Hospital had initially 78 beds divided into 2 male wards, 1 female ward, 1 Paediatric ward, 1 Gynaecological ward and a department of Accident and Emergency managed by Dr Limberty and two other colleagues.

In July 1983, the then Prime Minister laid the foundation stone for an X-ray department.

In August 1983, a minor surgery service was opened.

In February 1997, a medical ward and a Paediatric ward were inaugurated in the new hospital complex.
