The state Government of Haryana in India has approved the construction of a new 872-bed multi-speciality government hospital in Gurugram.  

According to Gurugram chief medical officer Dr Virender Yadav, the Finance Department has sanctioned Rs9.9bn ($117.6m) for the development of the hospital and its associated infrastructure. 

A report by The Tribune India highlighted that the proposed ten-storey hospital building, which will also feature an ICU and a trauma centre, has been allocated Rs47.2m for its architectural design.  

The Central Public Works Department (CPWD) will oversee the construction, under the state government's supervision.  

Plans for the hospital also include a helipad on the top floor to facilitate heli-ambulance services. 

Yadav said: “A multi-speciality hospital in Gurugram is the need of the hour for patients seeking affordable healthcare. At present, in the Civil Hospital building in Sector 10, the sole government facility in the city, patients are forced to share beds and floors due to the acute shortage of space. 

“Just like any other multi-speciality or super-speciality hospital, the new hospital would have a CT-MRI unit, departments of radiology and oncology, specialised sections for nebulisation and immunisation, microbiology, clinical pathology, molecular, biochemistry and haematology units. There will also be a laboratory for blood group serology and a transfusion centre.” 

Yadav further highlighted additional features of the new facility, such as a parking lot with a capacity for 1,300 vehicles, including 300 spaces reserved for the hospital’s doctors and staff.  

The hospital will also have specialty units, separate dedicated for emergency services, outpatient and inpatient wards, along with some residential block to accommodate staff members.  

The Health Department has also set a 30-month deadline for the completion of the hospital. 

Yadav mentioned that efforts are underway to commence construction within the next four to five weeks, following the CPWD's tender process and the allocation of work. 

The site for the new hospital was previously occupied by an old government hospital building in the civil lines area, which was demolished to make way for this new facility, the report noted.
