    The need and extent of providing medical facilities at railway stations and in trains was examined by Hon’ble Supreme Court.  In compliance with the orders, a committee of experts was constituted at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi.

    The Committee has recommended provision of medical boxes at all railway stations and in passenger carrying trains, mandatory First Aid training for all on board and station staff along with provision of medical facilities through doctors available on-board (as passenger) or at the nearest station.

    As recommended by the Committee of experts, instructions have been issued to provide a Medical Box containing life saving medicines, equipment, oxygen cylinder  etc. at  all Railway stations and passenger carrying trains. Front line staff i.e. Train Ticket Examiner, Train Guards / Superintendents, Station Master etc. are trained in rendering First Aid. Regular refresher courses are conducted for such staff. 

    List of near-by hospitals and doctors along with their contact numbers is available at all Railway Stations. Ambulance services of Railways, State Government/Private Hospitals and ambulance service providers are utilized to transport the injured/sick passengers to the hospitals/doctor’s clinics.
