Umkal Hospital

Umkal Hospital is located at F 377 in Nanak Pura, and it’s a place that never really sleeps. Being in New Delhi, we are surrounded by houses and other small buildings, so it feels very much like a community spot. The building isn’t one of those massive, intimidating glass structures. It’s a practical space where people come when they aren’t feeling their best. You’ll see the staff moving quickly through the halls, and there is always that specific smell of antiseptic in the air. We’ve got the front desk where people check in, and it usually has a bit of a queue. The parking outside can be a real struggle, but that’s just how it is in this part of town. Inside, the walls are covered with notices and charts. We spend our time looking after the people who walk through the door at F 377. It can get pretty loud and stressful, especially when it’s busy, but we try to just keep things moving along. It’s a local hospital, so you see a lot of the same faces from the neighborhood. We don’t have much time for small talk, but we know the importance of what we’re doing here. It’s just about getting through the day and making sure everyone gets the care they need without any extra fuss. It’s a tough job but we stay here.
