Departments

Our theatres are fully equipped with resuscitation apparatus and the manpower to wade through any surgery. Hence anaesthesia and close monitoring of patients receive a lot of attention by the management as we consider human life too vital to be taken for granted. An average of eight (8) surgeries are undertaken by the surgical team weekly. Plans are on-going to expand our scope of surgeries to include cardio-thoracic, and neurosurgical interventions. Experienced surgeons will be engaged and recruited to do these surgeries.

We run investigations in-house and also serve clients from outside. The laboratory is manned by trained and competent laboratory scientists. These tests cover Biochemistry, Hematology, Microbiology and other ancillary services. A visit to our laboratory will readily attest to our ability to satisfy our clients and assist the doctors in arriving at diagnoses. Quality assurance and quality control are emphasized. Our equipments are also regularly calibrated.

This is served by a modern, rugged X-ray machine. The environment is protected from any radiation hazards by the lead-clad walls. Ultrasound services are also available. At Palmars Hospital, ultrasound is a core technology for diagnostics and remains one of the safest.  With a responsible and cautious approach to ultrasound, patient safety is assured and clinical effectiveness is enhanced. We use the lowest exposure necessary to provide essential diagnostic information.

The medical director who is a specialist Family Physician considers this his own passion, realizing that longevity and excellent health can only be achieved through informed health promotion and prevention strategies. Just as there are weekly health talks for the patients, our workers periodically receive talks on health issues. Patients are given materials like insecticides-treated nets and drugs to reduce hospital visit. We have introduced these measures knowing they will help companies and individuals cut down on their medical expenditure, reduce man-hour loss thus enhancing productivity and also improve longevity of the individuals.
