The new
Emergency Complex & Trauma Centre having a
covered area of over 1 lac sq. ft., was
inaugurated on 24th December 2003. This new
centre is not simply a change from the old
building to the new one. It is a major shift in
the concept. It is a self contained unit wherein
all the requirements for complete trauma and
emergency services are available under one roof.
New Emergency & Trauma Centre
After OPD hours, patients will be attended to
in this centre of the hospital, which will
function round the clock on all days throughout
the year. There are 150 beds and 10 operation
