Doctors of Bhopal Memorial Hospital and Research Centre (BMHRC) could be now seen delivering babies here in its maternity unit as Gynaecological Department will soon be started here. The facility will help improve healthcare services and ease patient load on district hospital, health department officials said. Actually, a 300-bed general hospital is all set to come up soon in BMHRC Hospital, a facility developed for victims of the 1984 gas tragedy. Along with Gynaecology Department, general departments like General Surgery, General Medicine and Orthopaedics department will be started in this hospital. After the opening of this hospital, gas victim survivors will not need to go to distant hospitals to give a safe birth and treatment of common diseases.

 

The superspeciality hospital operates in the existing building of BMHRC. In such a situation, a separate building will be constructed for the General Hospital. According to the good news, paperwork for this has also started. A medical college with 100 MBBS seats is to be started here in the next session. Last year, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya had announced this. The college may get recognition in the session 2024. It is known that it is necessary for the UG College to have a hospital with 22 departments, that is why a 300-bed General Hospital is being started here. Patients will benefit from the medical college and new hospital.

 

While the patients will get treatment for common diseases in the hospital, the hospital will get new doctors and specialists from the medical college. Preparations are going on for the medical college. Possibly undergraduate medical courses (MBBS) could be started in the session of 2024. Medical college is also a part of this project, said Dr Manisha Srivastava, Director of BMHRC.
