Hospital Materno Infantil San Roque

What Hospital Materno Infantil San Roque does

Hospital Materno Infantil San Roque is a public high-complexity hospital operated by the Ministry of Health of the Province of Entre Ríos, located at La Paz 435, Paraná, Argentina. Founded in 1915, the institution functions as the designated provincial referral center (centro de derivación provincial) for maternal and child healthcare, serving the entire province of Entre Ríos with a workforce in the 1,001-5,000 range. It delivers the full continuum of maternal-infant services, including prenatal and obstetric care (with community obstetrics since 2007), neonatology, pediatric intensive care (since 2013), pediatric surgery, and pediatric palliative care, alongside a network of ten accredited medical residency programs and a pediatric mental health service (RISaMIJ) that makes the province the fourth in Argentina to incorporate this subspecialty.

The hospital's technology stack centers on a unified provincial digital infrastructure: in 2026 it implemented the SaDER (Salud Digital de Entre Ríos) platform, providing digital medical records (Historia Clínica Digital), a turn-taking scheduling system (turnera), patient management, and a new module for the Central Pediatrics Emergency department, enabling clinical record interoperability across all public facilities in the province. Capital equipment investments include a 2026 PROCAM HD2 laparoscopy tower for the Pediatric Surgical Center and a hydrogen peroxide plasma sterilizer that reduced sterilization cycle time from 72 hours to under 47 minutes. The hospital also operates its own teaching and research governance, an infection control committee, a maternal-infant mortality committee, and a hygiene and safety committee.

As a public government entity, the hospital provides all treatments, medications, supplies, studies, and meals free of charge to patients and companions, with no commercial pricing model. It is funded through the provincial Ministry of Health and augmented by six core civil associations (Cooperadora San Roque, FundNeo, Fundación Crisálida, among others) that channel community donations. Its distribution is exclusively in-person at the single Paraná facility plus the province-wide referral network, and it maintains 11 framework agreements (Convenios Marco) with national and provincial universities, including Universidad Nacional de Entre Ríos, Universidad Autónoma de Entre Ríos, Universidad Nacional de Rosario, Universidad Nacional del Litoral, Universidad Adventista del Plata, Cruz Roja Instituto Superior D-74, and Instituto Madre Teresa de Calcuta.
