Support Services Laundry We are well aware of the needs of not only the patients but also of their relatives and attendants. We understand that relatives are more stressed and exhausted than the patient. As so while the relatives are busy making arrangements for the patients, we are busy making arrangements for the relatives. Thus, the attendant needs to just walk into the hospital with the patient. For any additional requirements, the hospital has an arrangement with a reliable vendor, who for a nominal charge will take care of laundry and ironing of the attendants’ clothes. We assure that you will receive high quality, well washed, ironed and properly maintained linen at any given point of time during your stay with us.
