Naonal Rural Health Mission (NRHM) was launched to strengthen the Rural Public Health
System and has since met many hopes and expectaons. The Mission seeks to provide eecve
health care to the rural populace throughout the country with special focus on the States and
Union Territories (UTs), which have weak public health indicators and/or weak infrastructure.
Towards this end, the Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS) for Sub-Centres, Primary Health
Centres (PHCs), Community Health Centres (CHCs), Sub-District and District Hospitals were
published in January/February, 2007 and have been used as the reference point for public health
care infrastructure planning and up-gradaon in the States and UTs. IPHS are a set of uniform standards envisaged
to improve the quality of health care delivery in the country.
The IPHS documents have been revised keeping in view the changing protocols of the exisng programmes and
introducon of new programmes especially for Non-Communicable Diseases. Flexibility is allowed to suit the
diverse needs of the states and regions.
Our country has a large number of public health instuons in rural areas from sub-centres at the most peripheral
level to the district hospitals at the district level. It is highly desirable that they should be fully funconal and deliver
quality care. I strongly believe that these IPHS guidelines will act as the main driver for connuous improvement in
quality and serve as the bench mark for assessing the funconal status of health facilies.
I call upon all States and UTs to adopt these IPHS guidelines for strengthening the Public Health Care Instuons
and put in their best eorts to achieve high quality of health care for our people across the country.

Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS). The Indian Public Health Standards are the benchmarks
for quality expected from various components of public health care organizaons and may be
used for assessing performance of health care delivery system.
District Hospital is a hospital at the secondary referral level responsible for a district of a dened
geographical area containing a dened populaon. Its objecve is to provide comprehensive
secondary health care services to the people in the district at an acceptable level of quality and
being responsive and sensive to the needs of people and referring centres. Every district is expected to have a
district hospital.
As seng standards is a dynamic process, need was felt to update the IPHS keeping in view the changing
protocols of exisng Naonal Health Programmes, introducon of new programmes & iniaves especially
Non-Communicable Diseases and the prevailing epidemiological situaon in the country. Three documents
for District Hospitals (101-200 bedded, 201-300 bedded and 301-500 bedded) have been merged, indicang
standards for 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 bedded hospitals in one document. The revision has been carried
out by a task force comprising of various stakeholders under the Chairmanship of Director General of Health
Services. Subject experts, NGOs, State representaves, health workers working in the health facilies have also
been consulted at dierent stages of revision.
This document will help the State Governments and Panchaya Raj Instuons, to monitor eecvely as to how
many of the District Hospitals are conforming to IPHS and strive to upgrade the remaining to the desired level.
I would like to acknowledge the eorts of the Directorate General of Health Services in preparing the guidelines.
It is hoped that this document will be useful to all the stakeholders. Comments and suggesons for further
improvements are most welcome.

Standards are a means of describing a level of quality that the health care organizaons are
expected to meet or aspire to achieve. For the rst me under Naonal Rural Health Mission
(NRHM), an eort had been made to develop Indian Public Health Standards (IPHS) for a vast
network of peripheral public health instuons in the country and the rst set of standards was
released in early 2007 to provide opmal specialized care to the community and achieve and
maintain an acceptable standard of quality of care.
The IPHS for District Hospitals has been revised keeping in view the resources available with
respect to funconal requirements with minimum acceptable standards for such as building,
manpower, instruments and equipment, drugs and other facilies etc. The task of revision was completed as a
result of consultaons held over many months with task force members, programme ocers, Regional Directors
of Health and Family Welfare, experts, health funconaries, representaves of Non-Government organizaons,
development partners and State/Union Territory Government representaves aer reaching a consensus. The
contribuon of all of them is well appreciated.
In this revised IPHS document, services that a District Hospital is expected to provide have been grouped as
Essenal (Minimum Assured Services) and Desirable (which we should aspire to achieve). Besides the basic
specialty services, due importance has been given to Newborn Care, Psychiatric services, Physical Medicine and
Rehabilitaon services, Accident and Trauma Services, Dialysis services, An-retroviral therapy and Paent Safety
and Infecon control norms. District Hospital should be in a posion not only to provide all basic specialty services
but should aim to develop super-specialty services gradually. District Hospital also needs to be ready for epidemic
and disaster management all the mes. In addion, it should provide facilies for skill based trainings for dierent
levels of health care workers.
I hope that this document will be of immense help to the States/Union Territories and other stakeholders in
bringing up the health facilies to the level of Indian Public Health Standards.
(Dr. Iagd|sh rasad)

geographical area containing a defined population.
Its objective is to provide comprehensive secondary
health care services to the people in the district at
an acceptable level of quality and being responsive
and sensitive to the needs of people and referring
centres. Every district is expected to have a district
hospital. As the population of a district is variable,
the bed strength also varies from 75 to 500 beds
depending on the size, terrain and population of the
district.
Service Delivery
District Hospital should be in a posion to provide
all basic speciality services and should aim to
develop super-specialty services gradually. District
Hospital also needs to be ready for epidemic and
disaster management all the mes. In addion, it
should provide facilies for skill based trainings
for dierent levels of health care workers. In this
IPHS document, Services that a District Hospital is
expected to provide have been grouped as Essenal
(Minimum Assured Services) and Desirable (which
we should aspire to achieve). The services include
OPD, indoor and Emergency Service. Besides the basic
specialty Services, due importance has been given to
Newborn Care, Psychiatric services, Physical Medicine
and Rehabilitaon services, Accident and Trauma
Services, Dialysis services and An-retroviral therapy.
It is desirable that Super-speciales and related
diagnosc facilies be made available, in more than
300 bedded hospitals. Every district hospital should
provide facilies of Special Newborn Care Units (SNCU)
with specially trained sta. Provisions for Paent Safety,
infecon control and Health Care workers Safety have
been added. It is desirable that every District Hospital
should have a Post Partum Unit with dedicated sta
to provide Post natal services, all Family Planning
Services, Safe Aboron services and immunizaon in
an integrated manner.
Requirement for Delivery of the
Above-menoned Services
The requirements have been projected on the basis
of esmated case load for hospital of this strength.
The guidelines of hospital building, planning and
layout, signage, disaster prevenon measures for
new facilies, barrier free access and environmental
friendly features have been included. Provisions for
quality assurance in clinics, laboratories, blood bank,
ward unit, pharmacies, and accident & emergency
services have been made. Manpower has been
raonalized and addional manpower has been
provided for Physical medicine and Rehabilitaon

A Charter of Paents Rights for appropriate
informaon to the beneciaries, grievance redressal
and constuon of Hospital Management Commiee
for beer management and improvement of
hospital services with involvement of Panchaya Raj
Instuons (PRI) and NGOs have also been made
as a part of the Indian Public Health Standards. The
monitoring process and quality assurance mechanism
are also included.
Standards are the main driver for connuous
improvements in quality. The performance of District
Hospital can be assessed against the set standards. This
would help monitor and improve the funconing of the
District Hospitals in the country.
Introducon
Indias Public Health System has been developed
over the years as a 3-tier system, namely primary,
secondary and tertiary level of health care.
District Health System is the fundamental basis
for implementing various health policies, delivery
of healthcare and management of health services
for defined geographic area. District hospital is an
essential component of the district health system
and functions as a secondary level of health care
which provides curative, preventive and promotive
healthcare services to the people in the district.
Every district is expected to have a district hospital
linked with the public hospitals/health centres down
below the district such as Sub-district/Sub-divisional
hospitals, Community Health Centres, Primary
Health Centres and Sub-centres. However, at present
there are 605 district hospitals in 640 districts of the
country as per NRHM data as on 30-6-2010.
The Government of India is strongly commied to
strengthen the health sector for improving the health
status of the populaon. A number of steps have been
taken to that eect in the post independence era.
One such step is strengthening of referral services
and provision of speciality services at district and
sub-district hospitals. Various specialists like surgeon,
physician, obstetrician and gynaecologist, paediatrician,
orthopaedic surgeon, ophthalmologist, anaesthest,
ENT specialist and denst have been placed in the
district headquarter hospital.
The district hospitals cater to the people living in urban
(district headquarters town and adjoining areas) and
the rural people in the district. District hospital system
is required to work not only as a curave centre but
at the same me should be able to build interface
with the instuons external to it including those
controlled by non-government and private voluntary
health organizaons. In the fast changing scenario, the
objecves of a district hospital need to unify scienc
thought with praccal operaons which aim to integrate
management techniques, interpersonal behaviour
and decision making models to serve the system and
improve its eciency and eecveness. By establishing
a telemedicine link with district to referral hospital
(Medical College) with video-conferencing facility
(desirable), the quality of secondary and limited terary
care can be improved considerably at district hospitals.
The current funconing of the most of the district
hospitals in the public sector are not up to the
expectaon especially in relaon to availability,
accessibility and quality. The sta strength, beds
strength, equipment supply, service availability and
populaon coverage are not uniform among all the
district hospitals.
As per Census 2001, the populaon of a district varies
from as low as 32,000 (Yanam in Pondicherry, Lahaul
& Spi in Himachal Pradesh) to as high as 30 lakhs
(Ludhiana, Amritsar districts). The bed strength also
varies from 75 to 500 beds depending on the size,
terrain and populaon of the district. The second phase

of the facility survey undertaken by the Ministry of
Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, covering
370 district hospitals from 26 states has revealed that
59% of the surveyed district hospitals have tap water
facility; the electricity facility is available in 97% of
the districts with a stand by generator facility in 92%
of the cases. Almost all the District Hospitals in India
have one operaon theatre and 48% of them have an
OT specically for gynaecological purpose. About 73%
of the surveyed district hospitals have laboratories. A
separate asepc labour room is found in only 45% of
the surveyed district hospitals. Only half of the total
numbers of district hospitals have OPD facility for RTI/
STI. As regards manpower 10% of the district hospitals
do not have O&G specialists and paediatricians. 80% of
the District Hospitals have at least one pathologist and
83% at least one anaesthest. General duty Medical
ocers, sta nurses, female health workers and
laboratory technicians are available in almost all district
hospitals. Only 68% of the district hospitals have linkage
with the district blood banks.
Most of the district hospitals suer from large number
of constraints such as:
Buildings are either very old and in dilapidated
condions or are not maintained properly,
because of lack of convergence with
maintenance department.
The facilies at district hospitals require
connued upgradaon to keep pace with the
advances in medical knowledge, diagnosc
procedures, storage and retrieval of informaon.
It has been observed that development of
hospitals is not keeping pace with the scienc
development.
A typical district hospital lacks modern
diagnoscs and therapeuc equipment, proper
emergency services, intensive care units,
essenal pharmaceucals and supplies, referral
support and resources.
There is a lack of trained and qualied
sta for hospital management and for the
management of other ancillary and supporve
services viz. medical records, central sterilizaon
department, laundry, house keeping, dietary
and management of nursing services.
There is lack of community parcipaon and
ownership, management and accountability of
district hospitals through hospital management
commiees.

1. Following guidelines will be used for management
of Mercury waste:
As mercury waste is a hazardous waste, the
storage, handling, treatment and disposal
pracces should be in line with the requirements
of Government of Indias Hazardous Waste
(Management, Handling and Trans-boundary
Movement) Rules 2008, which may be seen at
website www.cpcb.nic.in.
Mercury-contaminated waste should not be
mixed with other biomedical waste or with
general waste. It should not be swept down
the drain and wherever possible, it should be
disposed o at a hazardous waste facility or given
to a mercury-based equipment manufacturer.
Precauon should be taken not to handle
mercury with bare hands and as far as possible;
jewellery should be removed at the me of
handling mercury. Aer handling mercury,
hands must be carefully washed before eang
or drinking. Appropriate personal protecve
equipment (rubber gloves, goggles/face
a.
b.
c.
shields and clothing) should be used while
handling mercury.
Mercury-containing thermometers should be
kept in a container that does not have a hard
boom. Prefer a plasc container to a glass
container, as the possibility of breakage will be
less.
In case of breakage, cardboard sheets should
be used to push the spilled beads of mercury
together. A syringe should be used to suck the
beads of mercury. Mercury should be placed
carefully in a container with some water. Any
remaining beads of mercury will be picked up
with a scky tape and placed in a plasc bag,
properly labeled.
2. Reporng formats must be used to report and
register any mercury spills/leakages.
3. Hospitals and health centres should work to
create awareness among health workers and other
stakeholders regarding the health and safety hazards
of mercury.

Seismic safety of non-structural
elements of Hospitals/Health facility
Health Facility/Hospital should remain intact and
funconal aer an earthquake to carry on roune
and emergency medical care.
There may be increased demand for its services
aer an earthquake.
Hospital accommodates large number of paents
who cannot be evacuated in the event of
earthquake.
Hospitals have complex network of equipment
specialised furniture, ducng, wiring, electrical,
mechanical ngs which are vulnerable due to
earthquake.
The Non-structural element may value very high
from 80% to 90% incase of Hospital unlike oce
buildings due to specialized medical equipment.
Even if building remains intact, it may be rendered
non-funconal due to damage to equipment,
pipelines, fall of parons and store material, etc.
While the safety of building structure is the duty of
PWD and designers of the building, the risk of non-
structural component has to be dealt by sta and
authories of the health facility.
This non-structural Migaon & reducon of risk
can be achieved through series of steps:
Sensizaon (understanding earthquakes and
safety requirements).
Earthquake Hazard Idencaon in the
hospital.

SEISMIC SAFETY GUIDELINES

Hazard survey and priorizaon.
Reducing non-structural hazards.
Step I: Understanding Earthquakes and
Safety requirements
Awareness and sensizaon about safety.
The structural elements of a building carry the
weight of the building like columns, beams,
slabs, walls, etc.
The Non-structural elements do not carry
weight of the building, but include windows,
doors, stairs, paron and the building contents:
furniture, water tank, hospital equipment,
medical equipment, pharmacy items and basic
installaon like water tanks, medical gases,
pipelines, air condioning, telecommunicaons,
electricity etc.
Step II: Earthquakes hazard idencaon in
the hospital
Tall, narrow furniture like cupboards can fall on
people, block doors/passages/exits.
Items on wheels or smooth surfaces can roll
and crash.
Large and small things on shelves, etc. can
knock, fall, crash and damage severely.
Hanging objects can fall.
Shelves/almirahs, storage cabinets can topple
and block exits and obstruct evacuaon.
Pipes can break and disrupt water supply.
