Lalitpur Metropolitan City is preparing to provide home-based health services from Shrawan across Lalitpur, where patients or family members can call 1131 to request an ambulance with health workers. The service aims to support people who cannot easily visit hospitals, especially senior citizens, people with disabilities, long-term patients, and those facing sudden health problems.

Home Health Service

After receiving a call, an ambulance with health workers will reach the patient’s home and provide needed support.

Public Relief

The service is expected to reduce hospital travel pressure for vulnerable citizens and families needing quick medical help.

While the policy is a positive step for valley residents, it also raises a bigger question about rural communities that still struggle to access even basic health facilities.
