The Cauayan District Hospital is a government owned and operated hospital under the leadership of the Provincial Governor of Isabela, Rodolfo T. Albano III. It is a Level I Health facility with an Authorized Bed Capacity (ABC) of 50 beds.

Brief Background

      The Cauayan District Hospital was established by virtue of Republic Act 6130 on March 1, 1972 with its original name Cauayan Emergency Hospital. It initially operated with 25 bed In-Patient capacity housed in the second floor of the then Cauayan Police Department Building on June 1, 1972. It started its Out-Patient Services on May 10, 1972. Due to increasing demands for affordable health care services, the space provided for was no longer enough thus, thru the help of a physician philanthropist, the late Dr. Basilio Reyes who donated more than 2 hectares of land, the construction of a new hospital complex was started on January 21, 1973.

      It was a ten (10) unit pre-fab building including Contagious Ward, Dietary, Nurses dorm, Power house, Motor House, Morgue, Out-Patient Service, and administrative building.

      On November 21, 1976, the hospital was upgraded into a 50-bed General Hospital and was named Don Mariano Rubio Marcos General Hospital.

      On March 6, 1986, after the EDSA Revolution, Executive Order (EO) 85 was issued by then former President Corazon C. Aquino. The hospital was renamed to CAUAYAN DISTRICT HOSPITAL and served as the catchment area of the municipalities of Cauayan, Luna, Reina Mercedes, Cabatuan, Palanan and Dinapigue and other nearby municipalities.

       In 2003, the Provincial Government under the leadership of former Governor Faustino S. Dy, Jr. initiated the construction of four (4) district hospitals of Isabela, one of which is the present Cauayan District Hospital replacing the old facility.

Mandate of the Facility

        The Cauayan District Hospital is mandated to deliver an accessible, affordable, efficient and quality health care services to the people in a safe and competent health facility giving priority to the poor and marginalized.
