Tripura to collaborate with AIIMS Delhi to boost healthcare infrastructure

Agartala: The Tripura government is set to join hands with the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Delhi for the improvement of healthcare facilities in the state, a senior official said on Wednesday.
For the purpose, a four-member team from AIIMS New Delhi, headed by its Director M Srinivas, will arrive in Tripura on June 7 on a two-day visit, he said.
According to the PTI report, Health Secretary Kiran Gitte said, “We are keen to enhance collaboration with AIIMS-New Delhi for research, development and hospital management to improve overall healthcare in the state”.
The team will meet Chief Minister Manik Saha during the visit, he said.
It will also visit the GBP Hospital and Agartala Medical College (AGMC), and discuss with the authorities on how to improve healthcare facilities, he added.
GBP Hospital’s Deputy Medical Superintendent Kanak Chowdhury said the visit is important as it will guide the upgrading of the healthcare facilities at the state’s premier hospital.
“Around 2,000 patients visit the hospital’s outpatient department daily. Already, seven super-speciality departments, including neurosurgery and urology, have been introduced,” he said.
“The AIIMS team will meet stakeholders of GBP Hospital to know the existing facilities, shortcomings in the system, and will suggest how to upgrade the services,” he said.
Chowdhury said the assistance of AIIMS will be beneficial for Tripura’s young healthcare professionals.
Medical Dialogues had earlier reported that the Tripura government has initiated the recruitment process for 432 nursing staff, including 100 on a contract basis, to strengthen the healthcare services, announced Chief Minister Dr Manik Saha.
"About 153 nursing staff have been recruited in 2024. The state government has initiated the process to recruit 332 nursing staff to strengthen healthcare, and the necessary allocation has been received from the Finance Department to recruit 100 more personnel in the nursing profession on a contractual basis," he said.
