Aleosan District Hospital

The ALEOSAN District Hospital was established through R.A. 4854, which was authored by the late Congressman Ramon C. Tabiana of the 3rd District of Iloilo. The initial appropriation of P100,000.00 was allocated, and an additional amount of P220,000.00 was provided for the construction of the hospital building. Dr. Arturo A. Ardeña was appointed as the Chief of Hospital on April 1, 1968, and the hospital began operating with a bed capacity of 25 beds at the Poblacion of Alimodian. The hospital was later transferred to its current location in Barangay Bancal, Alimodian, Iloilo, on July 10, 1968. With the efforts of Congressman Gloria M. Tabiana, the hospital was upgraded to a 50-bed hospital, as approved by the Secretary of the Department of Health on March 12, 1974.

The hospital is situated at the junction of the three towns of Alimodian, Leon, and San Miguel, and was established in a donated lot that spans an area of 19,747 sq. meters. The hospital is located 2 ½ km. from the Poblacion of Alimodian, 3 km. from the Poblacion of San Miguel, and 7 km. from the Poblacion of Leon. It is accessible to all land transportation and is located in the central portion of the three municipalities.
