Medical college for women and Hospital
The concept of a Medical College exclusively for women is not a new one, particularly in Medical
College for Women and Hospital Bangladesh socio-cultural background. There are examples of such
medical colleges in neighboring countries. There is already awareness in the society for the
enhancement of technical education in the female population. The Bangladesh Government has already
taken positive steps in the field of teachers training in education sector. At present the female
quota of admission in medical colleges is far too low and as such many talented girls could not be
admitted in this noble profession. Moreover there are conservative families who want to educate
their female children in an atmosphere like this.
There will be also a training center for nurses & paramedics in this complex, so that a good number
of students will be trained in nursing and other specialties that will fill the demands of nurses
and other specialties in the government, non-government hospitals and foreign countries. This
Medical College & Hospital has already created a job opportunity for about 300 doctors, 100 nurses,
paramedics and other technical and non-technical persons directly. It will thus help to develop the
National Economy (GDP).
The proposed hospital, of this Medical College will ultimately cater for 500 beds with all
specialties like Intensive Care Unit, Coronary Care Unit, Kidney Unit, Neuro-surgical Unit etc. The
Hospital will provide the laboratory facilities and the immunization facilities to the society. It
will add to a demand in the Health Services to the people and will also save foreign travels and
foreign exchange in near future. This whole project is a non-profitable, voluntary, social work &
self income generating. The source of income is from trustee fund and later on voluntary donations,
student’s tuition fees and development charges, patient’s payments for hospital treatment, NGOs and
from any other legal sources when offered.
