The ICU unit at Bhola 250-bed General Hospital has remained non-operational for over five years due to a severe shortage of manpower. As a result, modern equipment worth crores of taka in the six-bed unit is at risk of becoming unusable due to lack of use over the years.
The ICU unit was established in the hospital on July 29, 2021, for the treatment of critically ill patients. Although necessary equipment including six ICU beds, ventilators, and oxygen concentrators was supplied by the Central Medical Stores Depot (CMSD), the unit remains locked due to a shortage of specialist doctors, trained nurses, and other supporting staff.
