During his visit, he was also likely to take up some key issues concerning the State, including exemption from NEET and providing a specific time frame for the Governor to give his assent to the Bills passed in the State Legislature.
The DMK government had adopted a resolution in the State Assembly urging the President and the Centre to fix a specific time frame for the Governor to clear the Bills.
The Chief Minister will return to Chennai on Friday. The new hospital is Chennai’s latest standalone 1,000-bed multi-super specialty hospital being constructed at the King's Institute of Preventive Medicine and Research complex in Guindy.
It will have various super-specialty Departments, round-the-clock emergency care and modular operation theatres. Mr Stalin had laid the foundation stone for the hospital in March last year.
This will be a green building and would have barrier-free access. The super-specialty Departments would include cardiothoracic surgery, neurosurgery, medical and surgical oncology, surgical gastroenterology, vascular surgery and interventional neurovascular radiology.
The hospital would have facilities such as a cardiac cath lab, neurovascular cath lab and intensive care units. There would be 15 operation theatres, including 10 major modular operation theatres and three minor operation theatres. Of the 1,000 beds, 170 would be for the emergency and intensive care units, 675 general and 100 private room beds. The hospital has private rooms and suites as well as an adequate number of waiting halls.
