Increasing trust in government hospitals
The Uttar Pradesh government is continuously working towards improving health services. Due to the rejuvenation program of government hospitals, new machines, deployment of expert doctors and availability of state-of-the-art treatment, patients are now giving more preference to government hospitals than private hospitals.
It is possible to provide treatment during the golden hour
Chief Medical Superintendent of Ramnagar Lal Bahadur Shastri Hospital, Dr. G.C. Dwivedi told Local 18 that through the Steamy project, it is possible to provide treatment to heart attack patients during the ‘golden hour’.

This injection is available completely free of cost in the hospital and our aim is to provide this facility to as many patients as possible on time.
