GIMS Launches Emergency Response Centre in Gambat, Sindh

The Gambat Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS) has inaugurated a Rapid Response Emergency Centre in Gambat, Sindh, in a development that significantly expands emergency healthcare capacity for the region. The new facility is expected to serve a large catchment population in one of Pakistan's historically underserved healthcare zones.

The centre is designed to handle trauma, cardiac, and acute care emergencies with dedicated rapid-response infrastructure and trained medical personnel. GIMS has been expanding its footprint in rural Sindh as part of efforts to reduce the healthcare gap between urban and rural populations.

Officials noted that the emergency centre will operate on a round-the-clock basis, providing services previously unavailable locally and reducing the burden on Karachi and Sukkur hospitals that have historically absorbed patients from the Gambat region. The launch was welcomed by local health advocates as a meaningful step toward universal health access in rural Sindh.
