Pak-China Friendship Hospital Launches 24/7 Free Emergency Care in Islamabad

The Pak-China Friendship Hospital in Islamabad has made its emergency department operational around the clock, opening up free emergency healthcare to residents of the federal capital at any hour of the day or night. The facility is managed by the Indus Hospital and Health Network (IHHN).

Dedicated teams of doctors, nurses and other medical professionals have been assigned to the hospital to deliver emergency care and life-saving treatment on a continuous basis. The round-the-clock service is expected to make it easier for people in Islamabad and surrounding areas to get timely medical attention, especially those needing urgent treatment.

Beyond the expanded emergency service, the hospital has been building out its clinical capacity by introducing specialised medical and surgical services to meet growing demand for healthcare in the region.

In a recent clinical milestone, the hospital carried out an Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) ankle procedure under spinal anaesthesia, which it described as progress in its ability to offer advanced surgical care. Head of Campus Dr. Khizzer Pervaiz credited Dr. Danish, the orthopaedic and anaesthesia teams and the hospital's support staff for their coordinated work in completing the surgery.

Hospital administration said it remains committed to expanding quality healthcare services and strengthening clinical facilities so that medical care is accessible and efficient for patients.

Residents have welcomed the initiative and thanked the Government of Pakistan and the Ministry of National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination for backing the free emergency healthcare service in the federal capital.
