Sultanah Aminah Hospital (HSA) is a government-funded multi-specialty hospital located in Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia. It is easily the biggest hospital in Johor as well as the main referral and tertiary health centre for the state. HSA is also one of the busiest hospitals in Malaysia based on patient load. However, budget cuts have affected its level of service.^[1]

Opened in 1882, the hospital overlooks the Tebrau Straits. The current building was built between 1938 and 1941.

The first public sector intensive care unit (ICU) in Malaysia was established at Hospital Sultanah Aminah (then known as Johor Baru General Hospital) in 1968 under the stewardship of the state Anaesthesiologist (Dato’) Dr T. Sachithanandan. The ICU was officially declared open on 3 February 1969 by HRH Sultan Ismail of Johor.^[2]

The funding to build the ICU was tripartite in source derived from the Ministry of Health (MOH), Johor state government and charitable public donations via fundraising by the Johor Baru Junior Chamber International (JCI-Jaycees). The HSA unit became the model upon which subsequent ICU facilities were designed and built in numerous other MOH state general hospitals nationwide.

The first postgraduate medical center in Malaysia was also established at HSA in 1969 by three medical pioneers; Dato' Dr Lim Kee Jin (physician), Dato' Dr.T.Sachithanandan (anaesthetist) and Datuk Dr. Sam C.E.Abraham (paediatrician).^[3]
