Mental Health Center

24hrs Mental health services.free medicines, food, services. Around 25 doctors and 500 staff for 531 beds. The buildings are old. Gets better service to patients if family member stays with them as closed wards can be congested. Severe aggression and Behavioral problems are managed with forensic facility and deaddiction Centre available in the 40 acre campus with about 35+ wards.

Very worst treatment for patients, and they are treating patient in the cell very badly, there is no light or fan inside or outside the cell. They are treating patient as a animals. People those who are working there are treating patient very badly. That cells are sorounded by bushes, trees and plants, if any insects, replties can easily enter into the cell, if any thing happened to the patient, who will take responsibility? Very worst mental health centre in India.

Treatment is still based on just the medical model. Not well maintained. Patient care very poor. Unhygienic. Improper utilisation of resources.

Building maintenance is very poor, please maintain, it will improve growth of hospital but the treatment is good, very good care from nursing bond students

Very homely atmosphere. Free food is provided for the inmates.that is good but some improvements are needed in menu.
Treatment is very good here one of the best psychiatry hospitals in kerala

It's a good mental health center under state government. Lush green environment and well qualified staffs.

Infrastructure is good but maintenance is very much neglected. Must improve in terms approach towards the persons who seek help here.

Mental Health Centre, Thiruvananthapuram is located in Thiruvananthapuram District, in the Southernmost of the state of Kerala. The campus is situated about 10 kms away from the Thiruvananthapuram Central Railway Station.

It was established in 1870 by Honorary Royal King of Travancore and during that period the Mental Hospital took care of patients with Epilepsy, Mental Retardation and Psychiatric conditions. Later in 1985, the hospital was renamed as Mental Health centre. Now it is a 507 bedded hospital covering 36 acres with 34 wards, pond and trees.

In early years, there was no system of patient care with patient bystander. The patients who
were admitted here was rejected by the Society and stayed here till the end of life. A hope and ray of
light entered in this hospital by the visit of Mother Teresa in 1983. Her valuable suggestions and ideas paved a way for Public Support and foundation for various developmental activities within the hospital.
Mentally ill patients from all over the country are getting admitted here and receives excellent treatment care. A Library functioning in Mental Health centre has nearly 6,000 books. These books are utilized by inpatients either in wards or by visiting library.

A real shame to the name of hospital all those there are insane including doctors and the notorious mallu attitude prevails there too

Not good hospitality shown there.they dont support the dreams of patients.i was not given much care.

It requires more expansion to separate violent inmates from less noisy lunatics. The availability of mental health centres in other districts are limited. The government should start already one more hospital like this between Kuthiravattom and Oolanpara. The quality of medicine is not up to the branded standard. Once you get admitted realise that mental illness is not curable. Medical students frequently visit and disturb patients. The charity of food is a remarkable contribution by the government. Patients are shown movies occasionally. Isolated narrow cells have limited hygiene. Paywards are less expensive. The campus have more room for new buildings.

Premier mental health hospital in Kerala. Vast area and convenient location. Parking possible outside. Small snacks and tea shops are there nearby. Attention is good to patients.

Very calm and quite place. Green environment and good atmosphere but since it is government property I don't see any improvements in the developments or constructions of the buildings/structure. Most of the rooms in pay wards are not clean and very old. There is no foul smell and all but still it can keep clean and government should do something for the renovation of the buildings inside it.

രോഗം പൂർണമായി ഭേദമായാലും പലരെയും ഏറ്റെടുക്കാൻ തയ്യാറാകാത്ത ഒരുപാട് അനുഭവങ്ങൾ അറിയാം. അതുകൊണ്ട് രോഗികളുടെ ബന്ധുക്കൾക്കും അതേ കുറിച്ച് ബോധവത്കരണം നടത്തേണ്ടതും അത്യാവശ്യമാണ്.
