The total floor space in the new facility is 50,194 square meters and it will have 331 beds.  When completed the building will have 12 floors, making it one of the largest hospitals on Okinawa.

Kiyoshi Iha, the head of the hospital says, “We will give our all to make this the ‘must-have’ hospital for local people.”
