The J.J. Hospital Campus
At present, the campus is spread out over 44 acres (180,000 m2) in the Byculla area of South Mumbai- the largest of any of the Medical Colleges in Mumbai. The campus is notable for its greenery and spacious layout in an otherwise crowded area of the city. As most buildings were added over a prolonged period of time, the campus has a mix of buildings depicting both modern Indian and Colonial architecture. The campus also provides residential facilities to its teaching faculty, resident doctors, medical students, nurses and other hospital workers. The campus includes hospitals that were originally independent before being affiliated to J.J. Hospital and thus retain some of their older names including- C.J. Ophthalmic Hospital, B.J. Hospital for children and David Sasoon Hospital. The campus has a total of 45 wards, 5 hostels and 7 canteens.

Famous quotes containing the word hospital:
“Radio put technology into storytelling and made it sick. TV killed it. Then you were locked into somebody else’s sighting of that story. You no longer had the benefit of making that picture for yourself, using your imagination. Storytelling brings back that humanness that we have lost with TV. You talk to children and they don’t hear you. They are television addicts. Mamas bring them home from the hospital and drag them up in front of the set and the great stare-out begins.”
—Jackie Torrence (b. 1944)
