The National Institute of Infectious Diseases (NIID) has commenced the implementation of the Hospital Health Information Management System (HHIMS) from the October 2026, marking an important step towards improving patient care and hospital services.

Patients visiting NIID are kindly requested to bring their National Identity Card (NIC), Driving Licence, or any other valid identification document for registration.

The new system is expected to streamline patient registration, reduce waiting and processing times, and improve the efficiency of OPD and clinic services. NIID appreciates the cooperation of all patients and the public in supporting the successful implementation of HHIMS.

The National Institute of Infectious Diseases (NIID) conducted an Ebola Preparedness and Disaster Drill on 25 August 2026 to strengthen institutional preparedness and response capacity.

The drill focused on enhancing isolation practices, improving staff knowledge and practical skills, and strengthening infection prevention and control measures. It also provided an opportunity to identify gaps and further upgrade the NIID Disaster Management Plan, including emergency response and coordination among relevant units.

The exercise contributed to strengthening NIID’s readiness to respond effectively to Ebola and other high-consequence infectious disease threats.
