History of the Institution

In 1939 a maternity home had been started in Piliyandala.  When started  it ,there was no ambulance also . But that time according to the registers   there were  about 100 labourers   here.
No any other hospital or central dispensary between Wathara  and  Kalubowila.To  resolve this, a central dispensary had been started with this maternity home.
In 1974  male& female wards had been started. Pediatric   treatment  had been given at the female ward at that time. In 1990 pediatric ward get started.
When    the population  was      increasing, the number of patients taking treatment, started to increase. But when compared to maternity care facilities with other hospitals we were in very lower level,which  means no special units and specialists.  Therefore   numbers of newborn deliveries started to decrease and now it has come to,  two deliveries   per month.
Dental clinic already started with hospital & medical clinic also held for twice a week  at that period.
With these units the maternity home was changed to a hospital. Now it is a  divisional  level hospital and named as Piliyandala divisional  hospital.
