‘Burn Ward’ to be operated in Bir Hospital

KATHMANDU, Feb 18: Bir Hospital is going to operate ‘Burn Ward’ within some months.

The newly-appointed Executive Director of Bir Hospital Dr Santosh Paudel said that the burn ward will be operational within three months. The service was discontinued after the building where the ward was located was destroyed by the earthquake in 2015. "Within three months, we will operate an intensive care unit with a burn ward and a surgery room," he said. "Now, we will treat burn patients."

The hospital will operate a separate ward in the new building. Minister for Health and Population Padam Giri appointed Dr Paudel as Executive Director of the hospital on Friday. Earlier, Dr Bhupendra Basnet was given the responsibility of Acting Executive Officer of the Covid Unified Central Hospital (Bir Hospital).
