Motilal Nehru (Colvin) Divisional Hospital's chief medical superintendent Dr Indu Kannojia told HT that "the quality of services at the hospital have improved as per the set standards. The report of the NQAS team shows that the hospital met the standard of corrective action."

The NQAS team inspected the hospital for consecutive 3 days starting from February 17 to 19 this year and on March 10, the report was made public. The hospital received an outstanding 80 per cent in this category, obtaining the coveted certificate. The 10 departments of the MLN hospital including the auxiliary departments were examined by a three-member team last year, such as outdoor-indoor patients, pharmacy, blood bank, radiology, operation theatre and laboratory, kitchen, laundry, sanitation, general administration etc.

The MLN hospital is now the third hospital in Prayagraj to receive the NQAS certificate with the District Women's (Dufferin) Hospital and the Community Health Centre (CHC)-Pratappur already having received the certificates.
