Deputy Commissioner Jitendra Jorwal held a meeting on Thursday with officials from various departments and agencies, instructing them to complete the pending upgrading works at Civil Hospital by this Sunday. During the meeting, Jorwal mentioned that works such as relaying internal roads, horticulture, beautification of the entrance gate, paving the new parking area, updating signage, and others are at the last stage of completion.
He also asked the officials for the installation of a new reverse osmosis (RO) system and benches outside the pharmacy for patients. Additionally, he also asked the installation of "way-finding" signage within the hospital to assist patients, visitors, and staff in navigating to entrances, exits, wards, labs, waiting areas, and other key locations.
Clearly marked arrows and labels that are easy to read will enhance the overall experience for everyone in the hospital. The Deputy Commissioner stressed the need for strict timeline while maintaining high-quality standards for all works.
It is pertinent to mention here that the renovation works included modern module operating theatres, a new ophthalmology department, male and female wards, outpatient department (OPD) buildings, an upgraded sewage system, waterproofing, internal and external painting, swings for children in parks, a waiting shed for patients outside the pharmacy, rodent control measures, boundary walls, new fans and lights throughout the hospital, tiling of all internal walls and ensuring access to potable drinking water, garbage removal, and the operation of two elevators, have been completed.
