Speaking to the Patna Press, Dr Thakur said that earlier the ENT ward used to operate from the old building opposite the Superintendent’s office. It has now been shifted to the new, air-conditioned complex with advanced facilities. He added that patients suffering from different ENT diseases, such as throat lumps, crooked noses, and perforated eardrums, will be admitted and treated here. “This new ward will help us provide better and faster care to patients,” Dr Thakur said.

The hospital has also been expanding other departments to enhance patient care. Recently, a 270-bed medicine ward and a 40-bed dermatology ward were inaugurated. A new parking area for 200 vehicles and a lecture hall for doctors from the Medicine, Gynaecology, and Paediatrics departments have also been completed.

All the new wards are fully air-conditioned and equipped with modern systems. Each bed features an alarm button, allowing nurses and doctors to respond immediately if a patient’s condition worsens. Dr. Thakur emphasised that this system will significantly enhance patient safety and help save lives.
