Pune's Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical College faces Faculty Shortage, Infrastructure Gaps
The Pune Municipal Corporation's (PMC) Bharat Ratna Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical College continues to struggle with a severe shortage of faculty and teaching staff, coupled with inadequate infrastructure and patient footfall at its affiliated Kamla Nehru Hospital. These issues are significantly affecting the clinical training and education of medical students enrolled in the institution.
Despite enrolling its first batch of MBBS students four years ago, the hospital still lacks essential facilities such as an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and functioning operating theatres (OTs), both of which are critical for patient care and hands-on student learning. Adding to the burden, the hospital also faces a deficiency of nursing and sanitation personnel, while the college itself lacks sufficient laboratory facilities and medical equipment necessary for standard teaching, reports the Daily.
