Amrita Health Centre Expands Critical Care Capabilities with New Operation Theatre and Semi-ICU in Sri Vijaya Puram
A landmark healthcare upgrade arrives for the island community, inaugurated by MP Shri Bishnu Pada Ray to bridge crucial gaps in local medical accessibility.
In a significant leap forward for regional medical infrastructure, the Amrita Health Centre officially inaugurated its state-of-the-art Operation Theatre and Semi-ICU facility. The inauguration ceremony took place at 10:00 AM on August 20, 2026, drawing prominent community leaders, medical professionals, and dignitaries to mark a transformative chapter in island healthcare.
The event was held in the gracious presence of Honorable Member of Parliament Shri Bishnu Pada Ray, alongside esteemed spiritual and community figures including Brahmachari Durga Prasad Ji, Smt. Maryam Bibi, former District Parishad Chairperson, Dr. Omkar Singh and Dr. Manish (Shyamala Clinic).
The introduction of the modern Operation Theatre and Semi-ICU addresses a longstanding logistical and clinical challenge for the island residents, who have historically faced hurdles in accessing specialised, critical surgical and post-operative care locally. This new development guarantees that critical interventions can now be managed efficiently on-site, significantly reducing referral delays and easing the burden on families.
“This new initiative marks an indispensable milestone in ensuring better treatment facilities for the people of our island community. With the divine blessings of Satguru Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, Amrita Health Centre continues its noble mission to deliver quality healthcare at affordable costs to every corner of these islands.”
