The second wave of COVID-19 has proven to be deadlier than last as new variants of the virus have ravaged the states. In view of the record spike in COVID cases, many states went under complete lockdown and Karnataka was one of them. Bengaluru emerged as the epicentre of COVID, but things are slowly starting to cool down. The state government has taken many initiatives to bring the pandemic under control, and setting up triage centres across the city was one of them.
In a bid to help COVID patients and their families running from pillar to post seeking medical help, the city's civic body, BBMP was instructed to set up triage centres in each MLA constituency. These triage centres work 24x7 to provide assistance to walk-in patients as doctors work in three shifts to provide round-the-clock assessment and care.
The doctors at the triage centres will be in touch with physicians attached to them to seek expert advice. They will primarily assess the condition of the patient and accordingly admit them to CCC or refer them to a higher medical facility.
Where are COVID triage centres in Bengaluru?
Each of these triage centres will be attached to an exclusive referral hospital, even private as directed by the BBMP. There are a total of 1784 regular beds, 1003 oxygenated beds across these triage centres and CCCs in Bengaluru.
