Construction of 50 bed critical care block begins at KMC-RI
Hubballi: A critical care block (ICU) will be set up on the premises of Karnataka Medical College-Research Institute (KMCRI). Hundreds of people from the seven to eight districts of North Karnataka come to the hospital for treatment, and 1,500-2,000 people visit the outpatient department every day.
The new unit will help treating the emergency patients.
A large number of people come to KMC-RI Hospital for emergency treatments. In order to provide them the medical treatment they need, the hospital will construct a 50-bed CCB building on the hospital premises, equipped with state-of-the-art technology and all basic facilities, at a cost of Rs 16.40 crore.
Earlier, a proposal was submitted to the govt by KMC-RI.
Now the green signal has been received from the govt as well. The central and state govt have provided funds, and a multi-storey G+5 building will be constructed.
Dr SF Kammar, KMC-RI director, told TOI that govt has given permission for the construction of a critical care block on the premises, and the tender is also at the govt stage. Two plots of land, including Deepa hostel, on the premises of KMC-RI hospital have been allotted, and the building will be constructed in a place that is convenient for patients coming to the hospital.
