Health authorities have approved a new In-Patient Department block for Gurez Hospital in Jammu and Kashmir. The addition will strengthen inpatient care facilities for the local population.
Gurez Hospital, located in the remote Gurez valley of Bandipora district, is slated to receive a new In-Patient Department (IPD) block. The development comes as part of ongoing efforts to upgrade health infrastructure in the region.
Officials say the new block will expand the hospital’s capacity to admit and treat patients requiring overnight care. It is expected to reduce the need for residents to travel to distant towns for inpatient services.
The project reflects the administration’s focus on improving access to quality medical care in underserved areas. No further details regarding timeline or budget have been disclosed in the available report.
