Growth of TNH and Research Hospital

Triveni Nursing Home needs no introduction among the Ayurvedic fraternity. It has created a benchmark in the hospital industry. It started functioning as an out-patient clinic under Dr. K A Chandrasekharan Nair, at Kaithamukku, Thiruvananthapuram in 1978. Dr. Nair, an exceptional physician retired as a Senior Lecturer and Honorary Consultant, and gained fame as a specialist in Marma, Department of Salya Chikitsa, Government Ayurveda College, Thiruvananthapuram. He served there for more than 28 years. It was his dream to have a Multi-Specialty Ayurvedic Hospital in Kerala, known for its adoption of professional standards, both nationally and internationally.

In order to provide better treatment under the control of qualified staff, an inpatient unit was started at Kaithamukku in 1978. This was initially a 20-bed hospital, providing all kinds of treatment on Ayurvedic lines. A staff of three doctors and other qualified personnel assisted him then. Each year around 25000 needy patients attend our outpatient department out of which more than 3000 people get admitted for treatment. Its journey from the humblest beginning to its prestigious level is due to the hard work and enthusiasm of the staff and management.

Triveni Pharmaceuticals

Genuine Ayurvedic medicines prepared in strict compliance with the books of Pharmacology in Ayurveda is a must for speedy recovery of the patients. So a unit by name Triveni Pharmaceuticals now prepares all medicines, for the purpose of the treatment at Triveni Nursing Home. This unit is presently functioning at Sreekanteswaram, Trivandrum, Kerala. As the need rose we have started another unit at Industrial Area, Kochuveli.

Triveni Research Institute of Ayurvedic Studies

In keeping with our conviction that research studies are essential for the progress of science and our firm belief in the right direction towards advancement, we have formed an institute called Triveni Reasearch Institute of Ayurvedic Studies to conduct scientific research in the field of Ayurveda. All this necessitated additional space requirements for which the nursing home was shifted to a new 6 floor building at Vanchiyoor, opposite to the Collectorate, Vanchiyoor, Trivandrum, Kerala.
