PRIMARY HEALTHCARE CENTERS

Health Infrastructure, Capacity Building & Investments: The focal points to improve healthcare in India

Inadequate infrastructure, such as beds, rooms, bathrooms, drinking water facilities, clean labour rooms for childbirth, and regular electricity, plagues primary healthcare centres (PHCs) across the nation. According to a recent World Health Organisation (WHO) report, there are just 0.5 public hospital beds for every 1000 people in India. To adequately meet the population's healthcare demands, India needs 3.5 million more hospital beds.
