Tirupati: Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy performed the ground-breaking ceremony for the Rs 300 crore 350 bedded Sri Padmavathi Children's Super Speciality hospital to be constructed by TTD in six acres near Alipiri during his one-day visit to the temple city on Thursday.
After laying the foundation stone, the CM examined the 3-D model of proposed hospital building and watched the audio-visual presentation on the facilities that would come up at the new hospital. This hospital will have 15 special wings of paediatric treatment including haemato oncology, medical oncology, cardiology and nephrology among others. It will have the facility to land an Air ambulance on the terrace of the building.
The CM also launched the services of cleft palate, deaf and dumb wards at the TTD-run BIRRD hospital. Collaborating with international voluntary organisation 'Smile Train,' the government intends to provide free service in behavioural counselling and speech therapy to below 16 years patients with cleft palate here.
Jagan also interacted with doctors and the mothers of kids, who underwent heart surgeries at Sri Padmavathi Hridayalaya and felicitated its Director Dr Srinath Reddy for his stellar feat of performing over 300 open heart surgeries successfully on infants at the hospital.
