311 Field Hospital

The 311 Field Hospital is located right near Airport Circle in Shahibagh. Being near the airport means there is always a lot of noise and movement around us. It’s a specific kind of place, a field hospital, so things are run a bit differently than a regular city building. We’ve been at this location for a while and it’s a landmark for people in this part of Shahibagh. The staff here mostly stays busy with the daily routine of checkups and whatever else comes through the doors. It’s a practical setup. We don't have fancy decorations or anything like that. Everything here is just for whatever needs doing that day. Some people find it hard to navigate the roads near the circle when traffic is heavy, but once you get here, it’s pretty calm inside. We handle a variety of health matters. The rooms are basic but they have what is needed. Working near the airport circle, you get used to the sound of planes and the constant flow of taxis. It’s just part of the environment. We have been a part of this area for quite some time now. People come in from all over the neighborhood. We don't spend much time on the looks of the place because we are focused on the tasks at hand. It’s a functional space for anyone who needs to see a doctor or get something checked out quickly. We just keep the doors open and do the work.
