The event was attended by prominent dignitaries, including Deputy Mayor Krishna Patil, House Leader Hanmant Jagdale, senior civic officials and medical officers, including Chief Medical Health Officer Dr Prasad Patil and Health Officer Dr Rani Shinde.

Facility Boosts Neonatal Care

For years, this maternity hospital has served as a crucial healthcare lifeline for low-income families and residents of nearby underprivileged areas. Previously, newborns requiring critical care had to be shifted to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Hospital or distant facilities.

With the commissioning of this 18-bed advanced intensive care unit, high-quality localised treatment is now available round the clock, eliminating the risk and stress of emergency transit.

Speaking at the event, MP Naresh Mhaske commended the persistent efforts of local representatives and lauded the Thane Municipal Corporation's medical team for their exemplary dedication, particularly their frontline service during the pandemic. He urged the administration to maintain this standard of 24/7 quality healthcare.
