Health & Wellness

The NLS Health Centre, located behind the Training Centre on campus, has been revamped to upgrade our nursing and medical services. This health facility offers minor in-patient and testing services, with a well-stocked pharmacy for common illnesses.

The University has recently tied up with Fortis Hospital to run the University health centre under the Fortis brand. This significantly enhances our healthcare capacity with highly standardised processes and skilled medical staff. This also strengthens our tie-up with the Fortis hospital in our neighbourhood for seamless escalation of cases as required. Our staff is also available to assist students with insurance formalities if required.

Please note, records of all medical consultations are strictly confidential.

Timings:
The Centre operates from 9.30 am to 5.30 pm on all days of the week.
On call assistance and response is available post 5.30 pm.

Medical Team:

• A doctor from Fortis visits the campus every day except for Mondays. The doctor is available from 3 pm to 5.30 pm.
