The Centre has currently 70 beds, a state-of-the art operation theatre, three ICU wards and one general ward. The Trauma Care Centre will start functioning in full steam as when 30 more beds and 20 ventilators are added to it in April, sources said.
The emergency patients are getting speedy treatments mainly due to Interventional Radiology, CT Scan, X-Ray, Sonography, MRI and other necessary facilities available under one roof. The ground floor has Casualty Department, Radiology, and operation theatre. Two operation theatres, one surgical ICU Ward and drug store are in first floor while the second floor has two ICU wards and one general ward.
