A 30 bed hospital detachment constructed by the Directorate of Civil Engineering under the patronage of Commander of the Air Force, Air Marshal Sudarshana Pathirana was declared open yesterday (31 January 2023) by the Director General Health Services, Air Vice Marshal (Dr) Lalith Jayaweera.

This marks a new chapter in Health Services of the SLAF as this signifies the establishment of patient treatment at the Narahenpita, proposed SLAF Hospital Site. The 30-bed detachment currently provides inpatient care, including physiotherapy for chronic patients. Further, this facility has the capacity to care for patients who need isolation as well. This expansion relieves the strain on SLAF Hospital Guwanpura by making room for more patients in need of immediate care.
