Prachin Buri health facility suspends services amid heavy flooding
Ban Khok Udom Subdistrict Health Promoting Hospital has suspended services until flood conditions return to normal, with children’s vaccinations moved to October 27, 2026.
- A health facility in Prachin Buri, the Ban Khok Udom Subdistrict Health Promoting Hospital, has suspended its services due to severe flooding.
- The closure was enacted because waterlogged access routes created safety risks for both staff and patients trying to reach the hospital.
- The hospital will remain closed until flood conditions return to normal, forcing the rescheduling of services such as vaccination appointments for young children.
Heavy rain has caused critical flooding in Prachin Buri, surrounding Ban Khok Udom Subdistrict Health Promoting Hospital in Nong Ki subdistrict, Kabin Buri district, and forcing it to suspend services from Tuesday (September 22, 2026).
In an urgent Facebook notice, the hospital said it would remain closed until conditions returned to normal because waterlogged access routes posed risks to medical staff and members of the public seeking services.
It apologised for the inconvenience.
Vaccination appointments for young children due that day have been rescheduled for October 27, a change that has caused concern among local families.
