DESCRIPTION :

    With the vision of playing an active role in the development and promotion of health care in and around Kolenchery¸ in central Kerala¸ the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church Medical Mission was founded in 1967¸ by the progressive leaders of the church. The activities of the Mission were initiated by establishing a hospital in Kolenchery. H.H Ignatius Yakkoob III¸ Patriarch of Antioch¸ laid the foundation stone on June 17¸ 1967¸ in memory of H.H. Baselious Geeverghese II¸ Catholicose of the East and the Malankara Metropolitan.The Medical Mission Hospital was formally consecrated on September 14¸ 1970¸ by H.H Baselious Ougen I. 

    The 100 beded hospital started functioning with Dr K.C. Mammen as its founder director and Mr M. Chackopillai as founder secretary. Since then¸ the hospital has steadily grown over the years¸ into a multi-speciality ¸1050 bed tertiary care center that ranks among the best hospitals in the state. The community health department of the Mission takes the facilities of the hospital into the community¸ through a network of peripheral health centers¸ resident nurses¸ health volunteers and local co-ordinating bodies.The Mission also plays a vital role in the comprehensive development of the local community¸ through income generation programmes and health promotion activities.
