Our results in sophisticated medical and surgical care among the best in the world.The most satisfying aspect of this endeavour is that these cutting-edge modalities are being actually used for the poor.
|
AIIMS strives hard to make world class clinical care available to millions of underprivileged citizens of India and neighboring countries. While its magnificent buildings and hi-tech facilities may create a superficial image of elitism, a visit to AIIMS is enough to dispel any such illusion Its corridors are thronged by patients, most of them too poor to afford quality treatment elsewhere. They come here with high hopes because of the reputation which AIIMS as built up. AIIMS is at present, not a single hospital but a conglomerate of facilities .It has over 1500 spread over the main hospital, Dr. Rajendra Prasad Centre for Ophthalmic sciences, Cardiothoracic Centre, Neurosciences Centre, Institute Rotary Centre Hospital and De-addiction Centre. This complex of facilities caters to about 1.5 million outpatients and 80,000 inpatients every year .The number of surgical operations performed at AIIMS last year was over 100,000. |

However, the strength of AIIMS lies not in numbers, but in availability under one roof of the best team of medical and surgical experts, state-of-the-art equipment, and our capacity to rise to the occasion to meet diagnostic or public health challenges.Be it the autoanalyser or the linear accelerator,magnetic resonance imaging or the gamma knife, AIIMS has them all. Once something new arrives on the scene,someone, somewhere in the Institute takes the initiative and musters the energy and drive required to get it |
|
Among the areas pioneered by AIIMS are cardiac catheterization,heart valve surgery, porto-caval surgery, neonatal surgery,jointreplacement, cochlear implant and multi organ transplants (cornea, kidney,bone marrow,heart and liver).Our results in sophisticated medical and surgical care are among the best in the world. The most satisfying aspect of this endeavour is that these cutting- edge modalities are being actually used for is that poor. |

The role of AIIMS in patient care is not confined to our own hospital.AIIMS has trained physicians and surgeons who have fanned out across the country and abroad.For decades a large proportion of neurologists, neurosurgeons, cardiac surgeons, paediatric surgeons and gastroenterologists were from AIIMS,simply because we were the first to start courses in these superspecialities.New we have D M courses also in endocrinology and medical oncology.The nation has invested heavily in AIIMS from its doubt that AIIMS meager resources in an attempt to provide the best possible health care to its people irrespective of their paying capacity. Few would has fulfilled its commitment. |

The comprehensive rural health services project (CRHSP) was at established, ballabgarh, about 35 km from AIIMS, to serve as a model for delivery of health care to the villages of india. It consist of a subdivisional hospitals and network of a primary health centres, subcentres and health workers. Its unique feature is a strong element of participation of the community in its own care. The project has demonstrated their major improvement in health can be achieved with modest resources. |

Undergraduate Courses
MBBS
|
50 students are admitted each year to the MBBS course of AIIMS. Our MBBS students are a carefully selected group of remarkably able and intelligent students committed to a high sustained hard work is the norm. What they need is only a little guidance along the path to knowledge. All efforts are made to keep their initiative and curiosity alive by making them active participants in the teaching-learning process. They also have an opportunity to stretch their minds with research during their vacations. The faculty is willing andeager to provide vent to the wealth of ideas and energy available with this endless streamof extremely curious and committed young people. However, since they skills for the being are trained for practicing medicine, we ensure that they do acquire the purpose. Further, the science and craft of medicine should be accompanied by a humane approach to illness. To inculcate the necessary empathy in our students, our curriculum extends beyond medicine, and encroaches on science and psychology. In short, undergraduate medical education is a blend of several streams of competing, and sometimes conflicting, endeavours. We try and make the blend as harmonious as We wish to produce competent and caring doctors while at the same time stimulating the creative abilities of our students It is not surprising that AIIMS was judged the best medical in India in the INDIA TODAY-ORG-MARG poll conducted in 1997. |

B.Sc. Courses in Nursing, Audiometry, Ophthalmic, Techniques and Radiography:
|
These undergraduate courses are designed to produce well quailed personnel without whom no health care team can be complete. |

Postgraduate Courses
MD, MS & MDS:
|
All postgraduate students in AIIMS are potential teachers and research workers. Hence during their stay at the Institute, they not only acquire competence in a branch of medicine or surgery, but they also savor the romance of teaching and research. The small pieces of research which postgraduate students complete are treated as guided introduction to the painfully slow and tedious process of discovery. AIIMS is also one of the pioneers in initiating an in-service training programme for postgraduate students. Residents, while providing patient care, also get formal training and education towards their degrees. Atpresent the Institute awards postgraduate degrees in 55 different specialties. |
DM & MCh:
AIIMS also offers superspecialty courses in a large number of medical and surgical disciplines (DM and MCh respectively such as):
| Cardiology | Gastroenterology |
| Cardiothoracic Surgery | Endocrinology |
| Neurology | Nephrology |
| Neurosurgery | Nedical oncology |
| Pediatric Surgery |
Master's degree in science (M Sc):
Master's degree in Biotechnology (M Biotech):
|
This two year course was started in 1986. This new venture in an emerging discipline has been designed to produce a cadre of scientists required for highly specialized areas such as vaccine production. |
Doctor of Philosophy
| Ph D students conduct an extensive piece of research of high quality on which they may take upto 5 years. While in MD/MS and M Sc/M Biotech courses the emphasis is on breadth, in Ph D the emphasis is on depth. The students delve deep into a narrow area to which they may stick for a lifetime. |
