Shenzhen Second People's Hospital: The “Life Fortress” for Critical Illness and Trauma Care in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area

I. Hospital Overview

Shenzhen Second People's Hospital (abbreviated as “Shenzhen Second People's Hospital”) is a Grade A tertiary general hospital directly affiliated with the Shenzhen Municipal Health Commission. It serves as the Second Clinical Medical College of Jinan University and the Affiliated Shenzhen Hospital, functioning as a renowned modern hospital in South China that integrates medical care, teaching, research, prevention, and health preservation. The hospital traces its origins to the “Second Branch of Shenzhen People's Hospital” established in 1983. It adopted its current name in 1996, became an affiliated hospital of Jinan University in 2008, and was selected as a National Regional Medical Center (South China) development candidate in 2021. It has since evolved into a core hub for critical care and trauma treatment in eastern Shenzhen and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

The hospital now operates under a “one main campus, three branches” structure: the main campus (Futian Campus) is located on Sungang West Road in Futian District; the Dapeng Campus (newly constructed) serves eastern Shenzhen and eastern Guangdong; and Shenzhen-Shantou Central Hospital (under management) provides services to Shanwei and surrounding areas. The main campus operates over 2,500 beds, handling more than 4 million outpatient and emergency visits annually. It discharges over 120,000 patients yearly and performs more than 60,000 surgeries (with over 50% being complex Grade III and IV procedures). Its trauma care, orthopedics, and neurosurgery departments rank among the top in South China.

The hospital employs over 4,000 staff members, including more than 600 senior-level specialists. These include top scholars such as dual-appointed academicians, recipients of the National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars, and leading talents under the Guangdong Special Support Program, as well as academic leaders like the Chair of the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Vice President of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association. The team has collectively received over 10 national-level awards, including the National Science and Technology Progress Award and the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Progress Award. It has led or participated in more than 400 international multicenter clinical trials and developed over 20 provincial-level or higher guidelines, such as the Chinese Guidelines for the Treatment of Severe Trauma and the Shenzhen Emergency and Critical Care Quality Control Standards. The hospital serves as a core research and clinical base for trauma medicine and critical care in South China.
