SRM Medical College Hospital & Research Centre Honoured with “Best Medical College Hospital (North Zone, Tamil Nadu)” Award at AHPICON 2025

We are thrilled to announce that SRM Medical College Hospital & Research Centre has been conferred the prestigious Best Medical College Hospital (North Zone, Tamil Nadu) award at the recently concluded AHPICON 2025 – the National Conference of the Academy of Hospital Administration (India).

The award was presented during the valedictory ceremony of AHPICON 2025 held in New Delhi on 7th December 2025, in recognition of outstanding performance in clinical excellence, patient safety, innovative healthcare delivery, infrastructure, academic contribution, and community outreach.

A Testament to Collective Excellence

This recognition is not just an honour for the institution but a celebration of the unwavering commitment shown by every member of the SRM family:

• Our clinicians, nurses, and paramedical staff who deliver compassionate care round the clock
• Our administrative and support teams who ensure seamless operations even under the most challenging circumstances
• Our faculty and students who continuously push the boundaries of medical education and research
• Our leadership that has consistently invested in cutting-edge technology and people-centric processes

From state-of-the-art ICUs and modular operation theatres to advanced diagnostic facilities and a robust NABH-accredited quality framework, SRM Medical College Hospital has evolved into a trusted quaternary-care destination for patients across Tamil Nadu and neighbouring states.

Milestones that Made the Difference

Some of the key initiatives that contributed to this recognition include:

• Highest standards of patient safety with near-zero tolerance for preventable harm
• Pioneering tele-medicine and outreach programmes serving rural and semi-urban populations in North Tamil Nadu
• Robust infection control practices that stood strong even during recent public health challenges
• Seamless integration of academics with clinical services, producing clinicians of exceptional competence
• Green and sustainable hospital practices that reduce environmental impact without compromising care

A Word from the Leadership

Lt. Col. Dr. A. Ravikumar, Pro Vice-Chancellor (Medical & Health Sciences), SRMIST, said:
“This award is a validation of our philosophy that excellence in healthcare is built on empathy, evidence, and continuous improvement. I congratulate every member of the SRM Medical College Hospital family for this well-deserved recognition.”

Dr. Nitin M. Nagarkar, Dean (Medical), added:
“We remain committed to raising the bar higher every year. This award motivates us to further strengthen clinical outcomes, medical education, and community service in the years to come.”

Looking Ahead

Winning the Best Medical College Hospital award for the North Zone of Tamil Nadu at a national platform like AHPICON 2025 places greater responsibility on our shoulders. We rededicate ourselves to the vision of providing accessible, affordable, and world-class healthcare to every individual who walks through our doors.

On behalf of the entire SRM Medical College Hospital & Research Centre family, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our patients for their trust, to the Academy of Hospital Administration for this honour, and to every team member whose passion makes excellence a habit rather than an act.

Together, we heal. Together, we grow. Together, we lead.
