GMC Palakkad (IIMS): facilities
College-specific references and practical information about facilities at GMC Palakkad (IIMS).
GMC Palakkad (IIMS) learning environment
This section brings together the campus and learning-setting evidence already recorded for Government Medical College (Institute of Integrated Medical Sciences), Yakkara, Palakkad at East Yakkara, Kunnathurmedu PO, Palakkad. Facility descriptions retain their original historical or undated scope. Capacity figures describe the source record, while student access and local arrangements depend on the selected programme.
Use the college-specific evidence below alongside the practical assessment guide. No new building count, equipment inventory, hostel vacancy or facility rating has been created for this update.
Teaching setting and clinical learning
The college describes teaching departments and an attached hospital. Its IIMS identity matters in counselling: the published reservation framework differs from a standard government-college allocation. Do not substitute another government college’s category assumptions.

A central library is identified on the institutional website. The retrieved library page does not quantify the collection, subscriptions or opening hours; this profile does not assign those figures.
Academic department range
The college directory lists pre-clinical and para-clinical sciences alongside clinical disciplines such as medicine, surgery, paediatrics, obstetrics and gynaecology, psychiatry and pulmonary medicine.
