Currently operated under the Government of Gandaki Province, Ministry of Health, it is a 15-bed hospital with an operational capacity of 45 beds, providing primary healthcare services including emergency and trauma care, orthopedics, obstetrics, general surgery, and non-communicable disease management.
Led by a full-time General Practitioner (GP), the hospital also serves as a clinical training hub for medical residents and undergraduate students from Patan Academy of Health Sciences. Due to its rural location, patients requiring specialized referral services must travel approximately four hours to Chitwan or six hours to Kathmandu.
