Begun in 1987 in a small classroom, the PCH has grown into a 24/7 medical center occupying over 2.5 acres, and serving a population of 180,000.
The Predisan Christian Hospital is Olancho’s most modern source of affordable healthcare. There is a huge gap in medical access and healthcare due to the region’s geography, economic limitations, and its role as an illegal drug route. The majority of the population cannot afford the expense of traveling hours to larger cities for basic medical care, let alone specialized services.
In order to meet the healthcare needs of our patients, we enlist healthcare professionals from across the country as well as from outside Honduras. Our local staff work alongside 27 specialists from across the country as well as from outside Honduras. We also host medical brigades from the United States, who come to share their expertise, and experience the joy of working with our staff and patients.
The PCH is a place for spiritual as well as physical restoration. Our staff includes a team of full-time chaplains, who serve the spiritual needs of both our patients and our staff. In addition to patient visits, our chaplains have developed a staff-focused program that includes study groups, worship services, and an annual retreat.
24/7 care provided by our local, full-time staff of general practitioners and registered and licensed practical nurses, focusing on emergency care, hospitalization and patient observation.
We host over 30 specialists from around the country to improve access to care for our community.
Laboratory facilities, as well as imaging services including x-ray, ultrasound, and mammography.
Our two surgery suites are host to Honduran and international surgeons performing GI procedures, vascular, pediatric, orthopedic and ophthalmological surgeries.
24/7 services, including patient consultation and dispensing of almost 735 medications.
Service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Specialist physicians available 24 hours a day.
Transportation of sick, injured, or convalescent patients who are referred to other medical centers.
Available for scheduling cesarean sections and births 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Services focus on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases affecting the teeth and gums, with visiting specialists such as orthodontist, endodontist, periodontist and maxillofacial surgeons.
Services focusing on detection, diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases. Pterygium and cataract surgeries are performed by visiting surgeons. Optometry brigades visit to improve visual health and correct vision problems with glasses.
Since 1988, the Center for Rehabilitation of Patients with Addictions (CEREPA) has helped thousands of people from Central America and the U.S. to overcome substance abuse through its residential and outpatient recovery programs.
The foundation of Predisan’s spiritual development work is our network of chaplains, serving our staff, patients, and communities.
To realize our vision of seeing people experience God’s wholeness, we partner with communities to empower them to meet their foundational needs.

At Predisan Christian Hospital, quality care begins with a team that never stops learning.
Our medical team recently had the opportunity to strengthen their knowledge and skills through emergency response training led by our internal medicine physician—in preparation of being able to provide a timely and safe response in emergency situations.
Because behind every patient is a team committed to learning, growing, and being ready to save lives.
