Jawaharlal Nehru Cancer Hospital and Research Centre
Bhopal, madhya pradesh

After the Bhopal Gas Tragedy that occurred in 1984, deemed as the world's worst industrial disaster, the need for a robust and accessible cancer care center became amplified in Madhya Pradesh. Born out of the need to address such concerns, the Jawaharlal Nehru Cancer Hospital and Research Centre was established in 1995 to provide quality and comprehensive cancer and palliative to care to the residents of central India. JNCH offers a variety of specialty cancer care services including robust diagnostic facilities, radiodiagnosis and imaging, nuclear medicine, and advanced therapeutic facilities (radiotherapy, medical oncology, etc). We currently have one palliative care project at this site.
