Establishment
The department of Psychiatry started functioning in 1988 as a full unit comprising of 20 beaded indoor and out door departments with the facility of ECT. At that time it was purely a clinical department which was the part of DHQ Hospital Rahim Yar Khan (the largest DHQ Hospital of the country). In 2003 the department was given the status of an academic department of Psychiatry after the start of Sheikh Zayed Medical College in Rahim Yar Khan. In 2005 the subject of Behavioural sciences was added to the curriculum of MBBS and the responsibility of its teaching was given to the department of Psychiatry. From then onward the name of department is changed to “The Department of Psychiatry & Behavioural Sciences” and it is serving as basic sciences as well as an academic clinical department.
