RIMS Ranchi, or Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, is one of Jharkhand's major government teaching and referral hospitals. But what does its “ranking” actually mean, and which services are available? This guide explains RIMS Ranchi's position, OPD facilities,

Searching for the RIMS Ranchi hospital ranking can be confusing because different websites use different methods. There is no single government ranking that can be used as an official “best hospital” position for every aspect of RIMS.
RIMS Ranchi is the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, an autonomous government medical institute in Bariatu, Ranchi. It combines medical education with a large public hospital and referral services. The institute's own website currently maintains a dedicated page for its NIRF India Rankings 2026 data, but the indexed page does not itself display a single hospital rank.
Third-party education portals may publish their own rankings. For example, Collegedunia lists RIMS at #66 among 517 medical colleges in India in its 2026 ranking, while Careers360 lists it at rank 49 in its 2026 government medical-college comparison for Ranchi/Jharkhand. These are college or platform rankings, not a universal hospital-quality score, so readers should not treat them as a clinical quality guarantee.
For patients, the more useful question is often: Can the hospital provide the specialist and emergency service I need? RIMS has a broad range of departments, which is one of its major strengths.
RIMS has a large multispecialty setup covering medicine, surgery, trauma, critical care and several super-specialty areas. Government health information describes it as a large multispecialty hospital with advanced diagnostic facilities, an oncology centre, dental services, a trauma centre and central emergency facilities.
The official RIMS department list includes cardiology, nephrology, neurology, neurosurgery, urology, oncology, orthopaedics, paediatrics, obstetrics and gynaecology, dermatology, ENT, ophthalmology, psychiatry, plastic surgery, paediatric surgery and physical medicine and rehabilitation, among many others.
Patients looking outside RIMS can also compare specialist options through Doctar's [cardiologists in Ranchi]. Cardiologists in Ranchi
For skin-related concerns, the [dermatologists in Ranchi] directory covers dermatology specialists across the city.
The OPD is one of the busiest parts of RIMS. The hospital's official OPD information says its OPD complex has services for obstetrics and gynaecology, skin and leprosy, paediatrics, psychiatry, medicine, ENT, eye, surgery, orthopaedics and dental care. It also has a TB and chest unit, ECG facility and vaccination centre.
RIMS also provides an OPD self-registration facility. The hospital currently describes a registration process involving ABHA numbers or the Driefcase app for obtaining a registration token, reducing the need to stand at the counter for the entire registration process. Patients should check the official RIMS website for the latest process before travelling.
If you are comparing options for children, see Doctar's [pediatricians in Ranchi] directory for doctors outside the hospital as well.
Related searches that may help readers include [gynecologists in Ranchi], [neurologists in Ranchi], [orthopedic specialists in Ranchi], and [ophthalmologists in Ranchi]. Gynecologists in Ranchi Neurologists in Ranchi Orthopedic specialists in Ranchi Ophthalmologists in Ranchi
RIMS has round-the-clock emergency and trauma services. Its published speciality information lists 24-hour accident and emergency care, intensive care, trauma services, blood-bank facilities, diagnostic services and a 24-hour pharmacy.
The hospital also has dedicated trauma-related departments, including trauma surgery, trauma anaesthesia, trauma critical care, trauma pathology and trauma microbiology.
This matters in real clinical practice because patients with serious injuries often need more than an operating theatre. They may require imaging, blood products, anaesthesia, intensive monitoring and rehabilitation under the same institutional network.
For neurological problems, readers can also explore [neurologist services in Ranchi]. Doctar currently lists specialist profiles in the city, including neurologists practising in Bariatu and other areas.
RIMS lists cardiology, cardiac anaesthesia, cardiothoracic surgery and critical care among its departments. Its published speciality information also describes ECG, echocardiography, stress testing, coronary care and haemodialysis services.
For patients researching heart specialists outside RIMS, Doctar's [cardiologist near me in Ranchi] page provides another search route.
RIMS also has nephrology and urology departments. Doctar separately provides a [urologist directory for Ranchi], useful when a patient is looking for outpatient options elsewhere in the city.
Related internal resources include [nephrologists in Ranchi], [gastroenterologists in Ranchi], [endocrinologists in Ranchi], and [general physicians in Ranchi]. Nephrologists in Ranchi Gastroenterologists in Ranchi Endocrinologists in Ranchi General Physicians in Ranchi
Cancer care is another significant part of RIMS. Government health information identifies an oncology centre with radiation facilities, while the official RIMS department list includes radiation oncology and surgical oncology.
The hospital also provides paediatric and neonatal services. Its speciality information mentions neonatal care and related facilities, while paediatric surgery is separately listed as a department.
For families comparing specialists, useful Doctar resources include [pediatricians in Ranchi], [psychiatrists in Ranchi], [pulmonologists in Ranchi], and [ENT specialists in Ranchi]. Pulmonologists in Ranchi ENT specialists in Ranchi
Physical medicine and rehabilitation is also listed among RIMS departments. Its published speciality information includes pain management and exercise programmes as part of rehabilitation services.
For dental and rehabilitation-related searches, readers can explore [dentists in Ranchi] and [physiotherapists in Ranchi] on Doctar. Dentists in Ranchi Physiotherapists in Ranchi
RIMS offers laboratory medicine, pathology, microbiology, biochemistry and specialised testing. Its published speciality information also describes X-ray, ultrasound, colour Doppler, computed radiography and other imaging services.
The hospital's department structure includes transfusion medicine and a blood bank, which are particularly relevant for emergency and surgical care.
Patients looking for specialist care can also use Doctar's [oncologists in Ranchi], [psychiatrists in Ranchi], [general surgeons in Ranchi], [dieticians in Ranchi], and [nutritionists in Ranchi] directories.

RIMS is located at Bariatu, Ranchi, Jharkhand. The official website lists the main telephone numbers as 0651-2541533 and 0651-2545404, with separate emergency and ambulance numbers.
Patients travelling from outside Ranchi can check the hospital'sbefore starting their journey.
RIMS also publishes hospital statistics and maintains an annual statistical-report section, which is more useful for understanding hospital workload than relying on an isolated online “rank”.
For women's health information, Doctar also has a dedicated guide that can help patients understand outpatient options.
