 The OP department has started

given to the patients free of cost. The public response is highly
encouraging. On an average, more than 1000 patients are being treated
in out-patient department every day.

The IP
department has started functioning from 01.06.05. Although 120 bed
hospital capacity is attached to NIS, at present provision to
admit 114 patients has been made. The response for IP is also
like that of OP. 24 hours medical service with duty medical
officers, staff nurse and PG students for the inpatients is
provided.

The
IP ward will function with its full bed strength within a
course of time. |
Eco friendly
campus:
|
1. |
The campus is
eco-friendly. This is an exceptional project to have created a
man-made pond in an institutional premise as a water
conservation measure. A sewage recycling plant provides
water for the herbal garden. |
 |
| |
|
|
|
2. |
Solar energy is
being tapped to heat 12,000 litres of water every day, by using
solar panels. It is proposed to develop the hillock behind the
campus into a groove of medicinal plants. |
 |
The National Institute of Siddha

non - teaching staff. This Institute is poised to establish the glory
of Siddha system so that the system can play a major role globally
in the field of health care.
