MCL hospital, Talcher to be on a par with AIIMS, Delhi

Post by srinidhi »

A team of medical experts from All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS) in New Delhi will visit the Central Hospital of Mahanadi Coalfield Limited here in January 2007 to provide expertise to make the hospital on a par with the former. The AIIMS team’s visit is a sequel to the decision of the MCL recently to equip the Central Hospital in Talcher with ultra-modern equipment and super specialist services on a par with the best medical institutions in the country.

The chief of medical services, MCL, Dr SK Mahanty, said a team of doctors led by him had gone to New Delhi to hold talks with AIIMS authorities and invited them to Talcher. If all goes well, the Central Hospital will be one of the premier medical institutions in the state and the MCL employees could avoid going out of the state to avail of modern facilities for treatment.

Meanwhile, steps are on to procure CT scan machine, ventilator, modern equipment for operation theatre and others worth crores of rupees for the 250-bedded hospital. Tenders had already been invited for the purchase of these machines. The process of acquiring modern equipment has already delayed due to the complicated new rules and procedures, putting patients to suffering.

With the installation of all these equipment demanded of a modern medical institution, a demand is being made to provide the hospital with the facility of tele-medicine which can go a long way in treating patients in critical condition. Meanwhile, moving a step further, MCL chief Mr Abhiram Sharma had asked the chief of medical services to consult with various bodies to explore the possibilities of setting up a medical college at the Central Hospital.

AIIMS in Orissa

Post by shanti »

The AIIMS proposal has been officially dropped. It could be due to change in the Central Government and also the negligence on the part of State Govt.
