A new five‑bed burn ward will be inaugurated at the Civil Hospital in Mohali, ensuring that patients with burn injuries no longer have to search for treatment elsewhere.
The Civil Hospital in Mohali is set to launch a dedicated burn ward with five beds, a move aimed at streamlining care for patients suffering from burn injuries. Hospital officials explained that the new unit will consolidate existing resources and eliminate the need for patients to travel to other facilities for specialized treatment.
The ward will be equipped with basic burn‑care infrastructure, including dressing stations, monitoring equipment and a small isolation area for severe cases. By centralising services, the hospital expects to reduce waiting times and improve recovery outcomes for the local community.
Local health authorities view the addition as a timely response to the growing demand for burn care in the region, especially during the summer months when accidental burns are more common. The facility is scheduled to become operational within the next few weeks, pending final equipment checks and staff training.
