The hospital had 556 credentialed members on its medical staff.  Hospital CIMA Hermosillo provided a full range of diagnostic, emergency, medical and surgical services. The 24-hour Emergency Room had a technologically advanced trauma area and operating room with a total of five surgical suites, servicing both inpatient and outpatient demand. Ancillary departments provided diagnostic and treatment modalities with state-of-the-art imaging technology.

Accreditations: Hospital CIMA Hermosillo was awarded a certification with special commendation for the hospital’s quality assurance and continuing quality performance program. CIMA Hermosillo was the only private hospital in the state of Sonora to have received this certification. In 2008 the hospital was first IHC hospital accredited by Joint Commission International, and the first in Mexico. In 2004 it was named as the top hospital in Mexico for quality and patient safety by the Mexican federal government accreditation body.
