Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann and Arvind Kejriwal inaugurate revamped Civil Hospital in Ludhiana

Taking a major step toward strengthening healthcare services, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) National Convener Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday inaugurated the renovated Civil Hospital in Ludhiana, marking a significant milestone in public health infrastructure.

Through the dedicated efforts of the state government and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora, the Ludhiana Civil Hospital has undergone a remarkable transformation. The modernization project not only improves infrastructure but also reaffirms the government's commitment to delivering high-quality healthcare services. These upgrades reflect a collective vision to raise public health standards and create a patient-friendly environment.

With a strong focus on improving medical facilities and patient care, several critical initiatives have been meticulously planned and implemented. These efforts aim to modernize the hospital, enhance patient comfort, and ensure a clean, safe, and welcoming atmosphere. As part of this transformation, a fully modular Orthopedic Operation Theatre has been established at a cost of nearly ₹1 crore, significantly boosting the hospital’s surgical capabilities.

Equipped with state-of-the-art medical technology and advanced surgical tools, this facility enables healthcare professionals to perform complex orthopedic procedures with greater precision and efficiency. Its modular design ensures a sterile and infection-controlled environment, improving patient safety and post-operative outcomes. Additionally, all washrooms in the Outpatient Department (OPD), Emergency Unit, and Inpatient Wards have been upgraded with modern fixtures, anti-slip flooring, and improved drainage systems to uphold the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene.

To further enhance hospital amenities, 500 new high-quality bed sheets have been provided, and five advanced 80-litre water coolers have been installed at key locations to supply clean and chilled drinking water for patients and visitors. The hospital's interiors have also been revamped, with new tiles laid on sidewalls up to five feet, ensuring better aesthetics and hygiene. Essential repair and maintenance work has been carried out to restore structural integrity, including refurbishing walls and addressing long-standing wear and tear.

To prevent water damage and seepage, all terraces have been waterproofed using advanced materials and techniques. Damaged doors and windows have been repaired, replaced, and repainted. After being non-functional for 12 years, two old lifts have been completely overhauled and put back into service. Non-functional fans and lights have been replaced with energy-efficient models, and the hospital’s high-mast lighting systems have been repaired to enhance nighttime visibility and safety.

The hospital premises have also seen major infrastructural improvements. Dilapidated roads within the premises have been dismantled and reconstructed for smoother vehicular movement and pedestrian access. Parking arrangements have been streamlined with the installation of high-quality paver blocks, while a 5,000-square-foot shed has been built to serve as a waiting area for patients and their attendants, providing shelter from adverse weather conditions.

A comprehensive horticulture program has been implemented to enhance the hospital’s landscape, introducing lush greenery and well-maintained garden areas. The hospital’s main gate has been structurally reinforced and aesthetically upgraded to create a dignified and welcoming appearance. A sturdy cattle trap has been installed at the entrance to prevent stray animals from entering, ensuring a clean and secure environment. To maintain hygiene, a strict rodent control protocol has been introduced, while the hospital’s boundary wall has been completely rebuilt for added security and durability.

These extensive renovations reflect the government's commitment to improving healthcare infrastructure and ensuring that Ludhiana Civil Hospital provides top-tier medical care in a well-maintained and patient-friendly setting.
