ABOUT

Overview

Crescent Hospital was inaugurated on 1st of May 1997 under the auspices of Crescent Medical Centre Ltd. The birth of this Hospital marked the beginning of a new era of professional health care in the history of Alathur. The population of the thaluk, totaling around 4 Lakhs, had the opportunity, for the first time, to seek expert medical opinion and efficient treatment for their ailments in their own locality. A hospital was such a need in the locality that 90% of people who suffered from even minor ailments had to travel at least 50 Kms to procure primary health care. The National High Way on an entire length of 110 Kms between Coimbatore and Thrissur, didn�t have a single hospital where emergency trauma care could be availed. The region had witnessed through years a number of incidents of road traffic accident victims dying on their way to hospital just because they couldn�t get emergency medical care at the right time.
