The
accident rates have been going up in our country due
to industrialization and rapid increase in the number
of vehicles on our roads. These accident victims require
timely and effective treatment preferably in the first
golden hour. There are also medical emergencies like
cardiac emergencies and poisoning which require immediate
attention. With a view to address these problems we
have started a separate department to improve patient
care on the 2nd December 2007 inaugurated by honorable
Health Minister Galla Aruna kumari.
