The Hospital Authority announced on October 15 that the Central Government-Aided Emergency Hospital in the Loop would begin facilities enhancement works from October 20, with completion expected in the first quarter of 2027. Services were to be temporarily suspended during the works and to resume after the project's completion, according to the announcement.

The authority said the hospital had operated for over three years since April 2023 and that facilities generally require maintenance every two to three years. The planned project covers replacing ceiling insulation materials, reinforcing and repairing frequently used flooring, and routine maintenance of air-conditioning systems to maintain the temperature and humidity control needed for precision medical equipment. Supplementary water tanks were also to be installed to strengthen the water supply system for emergencies. The works were scheduled for autumn and winter to avoid the rainy season as much as possible.

For diagnostic radiology, including computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound, patients were to be offered follow-up services at hospitals within their respective clusters. Urgent sleep study cases were to be tested at cluster hospitals, while non-urgent cases were to be scheduled after services resumed. The hospital said it had contacted patients with scheduled endoscopy and intravitreal injection appointments and would notify patients of new dates and venues.
