Additionally, a swift and transparent recruitment process for the Medical College faculty has been initiated, resulting in the hiring of 38 faculty members and makeshift arrangement for accommodation in SMVD University premises is underway for the college's future expansion.
Several important decisions concerning further growth of the Hospital with the introduction of "positive interventions" to strengthen the quality of patient care were taken in the Meeting. This included various decisions to address operational issues, critical review of progress of early expected Organ Transplant Programme of Hospital, finalizing plans for incurring capital expenditure for growth of Hospital upto 500 beds, extensive review of feedback / suggestions received from patients / attendants and firming-up of a road map for expanding services-framework of Hospital's Jammu clinic.
