About Marian Medical Centre

Marian Medical Centre, Pala started in the year 1973 under the management of Franciscan Clarist Congregation, Alphonsa Province, in the Diocese of Pala. It is registered as a Charitable Society on 12th June 1980 under the Reg.No. K. 286 according to the 12th Registration Act of 1955 the Travancore-Cochin Literary Scientific Charitable Societies Act, and registered under Foreign Contribution Regulation Act.Being Franciscans our Congregation aims to serve the poor and the marginalized people, without any discrimination, in the areas of health, education & Social development.

Health care and service being one of the most important objectives of our Congregation, the Marian Medical centre Hospital was established for the service of the sick, disabled, down-trodden and other needy thousands of people in and around the area. It has a humble beginning as a health care centre with 20 beds in 1973. But today it has grown into a 100 bedded multi-specialty hospital with almost all major departments and facilities. The reasons behind the growth and development of the hospital lie, both in the untiring efforts and selfless service of the sisters, the renowned, devoted and highly qualified doctors and the staff and the dire needs of the people in and around the place for better health care.
The institution is trying its level best to make available to the common man, the fruits of modern developments in the field of science and medicine. From the very beginning Marian Medical Centre has been catering to the medical needs of the rural folk. Very often we render free medical help or medical help at a reduced rate and other kinds of financial aid to all the needy and deserving people. It is also trying to irradicate superstitions and false beliefs from the minds of the people, on health and medical matters through public health programmes. The benefits of the activities of the society shall be open to all, without any distinction on the basis of caste, creed or sex. We have well functioning Nursing school nurtured by our medical facility.
