Infirmary Services are essential healthcare units that ensure fast and effective medical response in institutions such as shopping malls, schools, and residential complexes. These units play a vital role in providing first aid, preventive care, and health education, tailored to the specific needs of the environment in which they operate. Properly structured and Ministry of Health–licensed infirmary setups offer security and peace of mind to both organizations and individuals.
Shopping Mall Service and Medical Compliance
The sections located in shopping malls in order to render infirmary services are mentioned as emergency medical intervention units in Article 8 of the Regulations on Shopping Malls, published in the Official Gazette No. 29636 dated 26.02.2016. The application, infrastructure, and equipment required to provide these services are detailed in the regulation.
According to the regulation, the required personnel and structure vary depending on the mall’s size. Smaller shopping centers must employ at least one emergency medical technician, while larger centers require more advanced staffing, including emergency care technicians and licensed physicians.
Infirmary areas in shopping malls are responsible for quick responses to emergencies involving staff or visitors, coordinating hospital transfers when necessary, and maintaining health records. They also support health training efforts by sharing relevant data with mall management.

School-Based Services for Preventive Healthcare
School services are focused on delivering preventive healthcare, emergency response, and basic first aid within educational institutions. These units are expected to carry out continuous assessments, planning, and implementation of healthcare practices tailored to students and staff.
Residential Complex Services and Emergency Care
In residential areas,services provide nursing care, emergency intervention, and patient transfer coordination. The scope of services is jointly defined with the site management, ensuring alignment with resident needs and facility conditions.
Legal Requirements for Licensed Infirmary Services
Institutions providing services must be officially licensed by the Ministry of Health and local health authorities. These services cannot be operated by non-health entities like Joint Health and Safety Units or consultancy firms. Licensing ensures quality, accountability, and auditability of the care provided.
