Strict security arrangements at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS)
Security arrangements have been further tightened at Islamabad's renowned public hospital, the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS). A large number of security personnel have been deployed outside the hospital's Mother and Child Health Ward to ensure the safety of patients and staff.
This measure aims to prevent the entry of unauthorized persons into sensitive areas of the hospital. The administration states that security is being prioritized due to the presence of mothers and newborns in the Mother and Child Health Ward. Security personnel are monitoring individuals entering the hospital to prevent any untoward incidents.
The hospital administration has appealed to the patients' families to cooperate with the security staff. The checking process at the hospital's entry and exit points has also been intensified to maintain discipline within the premises.
These measures have been taken at a time when a large number of patients visit public hospitals across the country for treatment. Authorities believe that strict security will make it easier for doctors and medical staff to perform their duties and will provide a safe environment for patients.
In the future, there is consideration for installing modern security systems in other departments of the hospital as well. According to the instructions issued by the administration, following security protocols within the hospital premises has been made mandatory for everyone visiting.
