Bir Hospital (बीर अस्पताल) is the oldest and one of the busiest
hospitals in Nepal. It was established in July 1889 by Bir Shamsher Jang
Bahadur Rana. It is located at the center of Kathmandu city. The
hospital is run by the National Academy of Medical Sciences, a
government agency since 2003.The hospital provides medical and surgical
treatments. It current has a capacity of 535 beds.[citation needed]It
provides some post graduate medical training e.g. general surgery,
internal medicine, orthopaedic surgery, pathology etc. It has become an
Internship centre for students who had passed MBBS from China and Russia
and other parts of the world. Now the condition of the Bir hospital is
very poor. Many people are forced to go to other hospital and pay a lot
of money. According to the chief doctor Bhupendra Basnet of the hospital
has less bed than the population that's why the problem is occur.
