Shimla: Targeting bulk healthcare services and addressing the increasing load, Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur will inaugurate the Atal Super Specialty Institute of Medical Sciences in Chamiyana village on September 28.
Earlier, Indira Gandhi Medical College was facing an extreme patient load which led the government to construct a new hospital in Chamiyana village to ease the pressure. The new super specialty hospital will cater to the needs of patients as well as those injured in road accidents soon.
Patients with health issues had to visit IGMC for treatment, however, now they won't have to travel far and can get the facilities near their residence. Due to the COVID pandemic, the inauguration of the hospital was delayed which was supposed to be held last year.
Till now, the new hospital has 12 specialist doctors and 12 staff nurses on deputation. More staff will be recruited in the near future, discussions are in progress. Nearly 10 super facility departments will be shifted from IGMC including Neuro Surgery, Cardiology, CTVS, Plastic Surgery, Urology, Nephrology, Pediatrics, endocrinology, gastroenterology, etc.
