Accreditation for Shanti Memorial - Cuttack

The Shanti Memorial Hospital here has achieved a major milestone by becoming the first in the city to get National Accreditation Board for Hospitals and Healthcare Providers (NABH) certification.

The accreditation assures top of the class patient-care services, quality treatment, medication management, patient safety, records and infection control.

The accreditation was offered after two years of rigorous assessment. Shanti Memorial Hospital is the 232nd hospital in the country to be accorded NABH certification, CMD Dr Srijoy Patnaik said.

The hospital is also planning to expand beyond Cuttack. “We have applied for land in Bhubaneswar for setting up a 100-bed multi-speciality hospital,” Dr Patnaik said.
