Ludhiana, March 18-
In a step further aimed at providing quality health services to the people, the Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and National Convener of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday dedicated the renovated Civil Hospital to the people.
Due to strenuous efforts of the state government and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora, the Civil Hospital has undergone a remarkable transformation and path breaking initiatives have been successfully implemented to revamp Ludhiana Civil Hospital. The modernization not only revitalizes the hospital’s infrastructure but also reflects a steadfast commitment to providing high-quality healthcare services. These transformative efforts serve as a testament to the collective resolve to elevate public health standards and create a welcoming environment for all.
With an unwavering commitment to improving healthcare infrastructure and delivering quality patient care, a series of impactful initiatives have been meticulously planned and executed. These endeavors aim to modernize the hospital’s facilities, enhance patient comfort, and ensure a safe, hygienic, and welcoming environment for all. In order to facilitate people a modern and fully modular Orthopedic Operation Theatre has been established at cost of nearly Rs 1 Crore to enhance the hospital’s surgical capabilities.
This state-of-the-art facility is equipped with cutting-edge medical technology and advanced surgical instruments, enabling the healthcare professionals to perform complex orthopedic procedures with precision and efficiency. The modular design ensures a sterile and infection-controlled environment, thereby promoting superior patient safety and post-operative results. Similarly, all washrooms within the Outpatient Department (OPD), Emergency Unit, and Inpatient Wards have been renovated.
These are provided with upgraded fixtures, anti-slip flooring, and efficient drainage systems to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene. Understanding the importance of cleanliness and hygiene in patient care, 500 new high-quality bed sheets have been supplied to the hospital. To address the critical need for accessible drinking water, five advanced 80-litre water coolers have been installed at strategic locations throughout the hospital.
These water coolers provide chilled, purified water, catering to both patients and visitors while emphasizing hygiene and convenience. To significantly enhance the aesthetic appeal and maintain a hygienic environment, new tiles have been laid on side-walls up to a height of five feet throughout the hospital premises. All essential civil works within the hospital have undergone meticulous repair and maintenance to restore their structural integrity.
This includes refurbishing walls, repairing damaged surfaces, and addressing wear and tear accumulated over the years. To safeguard the hospital’s infrastructure from water seepage and potential damage, all terraces have been waterproofed using advanced materials and techniques. Likewise, a systematic program has been undertaken to repair, replace, and repaint all deteriorated doors and windows.
Two old lifts have been completely refurbished and brought back into service after a gap of 12 years and all non-functional fans and lights have been replaced with new, energy-efficient models. To guarantee proper illumination during nighttime in the premises, the hospital’s high mast lighting systems have been repaired and made fully operational, enhancing both safety and visibility. In order to facilitate smooth vehicular movement and pedestrian access, all dilapidated roads within the hospital premises have been dismantled and reconstructed.
In order to streamline parking arrangements, high-quality paver blocks have been installed throughout the designated parking areas. A spacious 5,000 square feet shed has been constructed to serve as a sheltered waiting area for patients and their attendants and provide comfort and protection from adverse weather conditions, significantly improving the patient experience. A comprehensive horticulture program has been implemented to enhance the hospital’s landscape with lush greenery and well-maintained garden areas.
The hospital’s main gate has been structurally reinforced and aesthetically upgraded to present a dignified and welcoming appearance. To prevent the intrusion of stray animals, a sturdy cattle trap has been installed at the main entrance to ensure a clean, secure, and disturbance-free environment within the hospital premises. A rigorous rodent control protocol has been implemented to eliminate pests and maintain a hygienic atmosphere. The hospital’s boundary wall has been completely reconstructed and reinforced to ensure security and durability.
