Hubballi Hospital Eyes 1 Cr Upgrade for Better Surgeries

Hubballi's Chitaguppi Hospital is poised for a major transformation as the Hubballi-Dharwad Municipal Corporation (HDMC) plans a substantial investment exceeding Rs 1 crore. This initiative aims to equip the hospital with advanced medical technology, significantly boosting its capabilities in critical areas like surgery, urology, and ENT services. The upgrade is crucial for improving diagnostic accuracy and treatment outcomes.

The procurement of state-of-the-art equipment is a priority, addressing current limitations such as the reliance on a single laparoscopic machine. The hospital also requires specialized tools for infection management and enhanced diagnostics for ENT and urology procedures. This investment is expected to elevate the overall standard of care and attract skilled medical professionals.

A formal proposal detailing the required equipment and estimated costs is slated for presentation at the upcoming HDMC general body meeting on November 26. Approval of this proposal marks a pivotal step towards ensuring that Hubballi-Dharwad residents have access to high-quality, modern healthcare services within their community.
