Health officials have also finalised the plan for health facilities at the Brilliant Convention Centre which includes the deployment of two advanced life support ambulances and two basic life support system ambulances along with the critical care system at the centre.
“We have mapped 19 hospitals with 37 hotels of the city to provide health services to the guests coming to attend the Pravasi Bharatiya Diwas convention. We have also reserved two wards and two hospital beds each in Apollo Hospital and Life Care Hospital,” district surveillance officer Dr Amit Malakar said.
“We have informed the hotels, hospitals, and paramedical staff about their duties and coordination with each other during PBD. We have also trained the paramedical staff and the hoteliers have also agreed to give space for the staff for arranging basic health facilities,” he said.
The officials have also decided to deploy 30 ambulances including nine with advanced life support systems (ALS) and 21 vehicles with basic life support systems (BLS). The ambulances would be deployed mainly at Rajwada, Palasia Square, and Bypass as the movement of PBD guests is expected in Sarafa and Chhapan Dukan.
