Kannauj District Hospital Opens 32-Bed PICU: Free, Advanced Care for Children

• Kannauj District Hospital launches a 32-bed state-of-the-art Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) for children aged one month to 14 years.
• The new facility addresses the previous lack of proper treatment, which forced families to travel to cities like Kanpur, Lucknow, and Delhi.
• The PICU includes 4 ICU beds, 8 HDU beds, and 20 general ward beds, all fully air-conditioned and equipped with modern facilities.
• Specialist doctors will treat severe infections, respiratory diseases, high fever, pneumonia, dengue, and other complex illnesses.
• CMS Dr. Shakti Basu highlights that the free treatment will save time and significant costs for economically weaker families, calling it a boon for children's health security.
