Woodlands Multispeciality Hospital has set a new benchmark in emergency care by becoming the first hospital in West Bengal to receive NABH accreditation for its Emergency Department. This prestigious recognition reinforces the hospital’s commitment to providing world-class emergency medical services with the highest standards of patient safety and care.

The NABH (National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers) accreditation is awarded after a rigorous assessment process, evaluating key criteria such as infrastructure, triage system, staffing, emergency preparedness, and quality management. Woodlands Hospital’s 10-bed emergency department has met and exceeded these standards, ensuring seamless, life-saving interventions round the clock.

The department boasts a robust triage system, categorising patients based on the severity of their condition. The two-bed section for extremely critical patients, three beds for moderately critical cases, and three for less critical patients are distinctly color-coded to facilitate rapid and appropriate care. This systematic approach enhances patient outcomes and ensures efficient resource utilisation.

Further strengthening its capabilities, the emergency setup includes a dedicated negative/positive pressure room, crucial for infection control. The department is also equipped with four ventilator-supported beds, a significant ratio that enhances critical care readiness.

With round-the-clock availability of specialists trained in emergency medicine, Woodlands ensures expert intervention at all times. The emergency department is also equipped with a procedure room for minor procedures and 24x7 radiological investigation facilities, enabling swift diagnosis and treatment for trauma and accident cases.

Key emergency diagnostic tools such as Troponin I and Troponin T tests, ABG, Portable ECG, ECHO, ultrasound, and defibrillators further reinforce the hospital’s capacity to handle medical emergencies with precision and speed.
