Hey there, Pune folks! Big news coming your way – Sassoon General Hospital is stepping up its game with plans to open a brand new super speciality hospital in the city. With the patient load increasing, the administration has proposed this new facility to cater to the growing demand for advanced medical treatments and critical care.
Currently, super speciality treatments at Sassoon are being carried out in the Infosys building, but it seems like they need more space to handle the rising number of patients. The new hospital, with a whopping 250 beds and a dedicated intensive care unit with 50 beds, will focus on departments like neurology, cardiology, nephrology, and plastic surgery. This means shorter waiting times for specialized treatments – hallelujah!
But wait, there’s more! The new hospital will also support postgraduate medical education, with BJ Medical College planning to introduce advanced courses in various specialties. And don’t worry about staffing – a proposal for recruiting doctors, nurses, and other support staff is already in the works.
And that’s not all, folks. Commissioner of Medical Education, Rajiv Nivatkar, spilled the beans on plans for a dedicated cancer hospital in Pune. A meeting with the District Collector is on the cards to finalize the location, and once that’s done, a detailed proposal will be sent off to the state government for approval.
Exciting times ahead for the healthcare scene in Pune – stay tuned for more updates on these game-changing developments!
