History The main hospital of Curaçao used to be the Sint-Elisabeth Hospital which also had a regional function for speciality care for the other islands of the Dutch Antilles. The hospital was constructed in 1855, and was no longer up to international standards. In 2011, it was decided to construct a new hospital next to the existing hospital. The Curaçao Medical Center opened on 15 November 2019, and all the existing patients were moved to the new hospital. The hospital was fully operational in one week.
