COMMUNITY MEDICINE
The Department of Community Medicine is well known for its value-based education and contribution to all strata of the society. Through teaching and training, and service and research initiatives, the Department contributes significantly to developing empowered physicians of first contact.
- Undergraduates are trained in community action and taught how to organise health centres and initiate health programmes.
- Health camps and community awareness programmes provide an accurate understanding of curative and preventive medicine to the students.
- As an introduction to this field, students participate in a 10-day Inter-Disciplinary Community Orientation Programme (IDCOP) with students from other medical sciences of the Ramaiah Group. The IDCOP, a unique endeavor at GGGRMC, focuses on integrated learning for undergraduate medical students, students of Nursing, Dental, Physiotherapy and Pharmacy.
- The involvement in the IDCOP is for a total period of 3 weeks, where 2 weeks are in the rural primary health care centers and 1 week in the urban primary health care centers.
- The focus of the ID-COP is to prepare better, more compassionate doctors who are socially accountable. This is achieved by teaching students about health, development, human values, compassion, sympathy, sincerity and honesty.
- A large focus is placed on learning by doing and students are encouraged to interact with village panchayat members and local residents.
- Together with students of other medical sciences, they visit the community defluoridation plant, interact with mentally disabled children at Spandana and also actively involve themselves in school health programmes. This results in doctors who are not just experts, but empathetic experts.
- Students undergo a 2 month internship in this department – 1 month in an urban setting and 1 month in a rural setting, where they live with the local community, and learn and practice under the local Medical Officer. This internship provides a deeper insight into the role of society, culture and income on health, its prevention and treatment. Interns learn the craft of medicine with the art of social understanding and gain the ability to provide healthcare with minimal resources.
- The MD programme in Community Medicine is an advanced course involving close faculty-student interaction, focus on research, field activities and clinical experience.
- Students cover the 3 critical aspects of Service, Teaching and Research. While they are posted to the RHTC and the UHTC, the second half of the day is dedicated to learning through journal reviews, seminars and case presentations.
- MD students are given external postings to old age homes, hospices, institutes of public health importance, industries, NGOs, administration postings to the RHTC & UHTC, the Ramaiah School Health Programme and the Geriatric Programme.
- The department is involved in various national and international consultancies providing community service in the areas of non-communicable diseases, maternal and child health, geriatric care, and bio-medical waste management among others.

ANESTHESIOLOGY
This refers to the specialty pertaining to partial or complete loss of sensation with or without loss of consciousness by administration of a drug, usually by injection or inhalation so as to mitigate pain especially during surgical procedures.
- The department manages the course of a surgical patient from the preoperative phase to the post-operative phase, including critical care.
- Drawing from its core of anesthesiology services, the department has extended into outpatient based Pre-Anesthesia Clinic, Theatre Based Anesthesia Services, Post-Operative Care Unit (PACU), and management of a high dependency unit like critical care (Ventilator support). The department’s services also include integral management of accidents and emergencies.
- As a part of its Acute Pain Services, the department has expanded its role and scope to cover pain management in acute situations. It has also undertaken partial and complete pain relief in chronic cases as a part of its Pain Clinic.
- The department is an indispensable part of Perinatology units for relieving labour pain.
- UGs practice elementarily, but under supervision during internship. They are then introduced to airway management and vascular access procedures.
- PGs experience a rigorous routine under this department as they need to practice around procedures from most branches of medical study. Residents are also actively trained to manage post-operative pain.

EMERGENCY MEDICINE
Emergency Medicine is a specialty that provides care for emergency patients by specially trained doctors who deliver a wide range of services. It includes initial assessment and early treatment in resuscitation, trauma, and medical and pediatric emergency including surgery and anesthesia.
- The emergency care team are fully backed by consultants for all specialties and super specialties round the clock. These consultants will attend to these patients within a time frame or transfer them to appropriate centers as required.
- The accident and trauma system has been fully integrated into this department and they strive to meet the needs of all injured or emergent patients requiring acute care facility, regardless of severity of injury or emergency, geographic location, or population density.
- The goal is to match a facility’s resources with a patient’s needs so that optimal and cost-effective care is achieved.
- This department trains their resident doctors (MBBS/MD) to establish care systems using a systematic approach that can provide “fast track” services for people with rapidly curable illness or injury, or organise transfer to higher centers in adequate time. This will ensure quicker treatment for patients, who otherwise have to wait for a long time or may not avail them in time at all.
- Resuscitation is the most important section of an emergency room. The department is responsible for the immediate treatment of medical or surgical emergencies, for initiating lifesaving procedures in emergency situations, and for providing emergency care for other conditions, including chronic problems and minor injuries and illnesses.
- They should also have a wide range of emergency care and patient monitoring equipment, as required for the said facility.
- MD residents are specifically trained to practice as independent emergency doctors/consultant from PHCs to District hospitals with common policies and procedure guidelines for provision of uniform emergency care.
- The curriculum includes administrative components such as Leadership, System development, Legislation and Finances as well as operational and clinical components such as injury prevention and control, pre-hospital care and definitive care facilities.
