Make every hospital a 'model': Collector

Published on: 

Collector Siddharth Komal Singh Pardeshi, at the district health committee executive meeting held under the National Health Mission here on Wednesday said that efforts should be made to make every hospital in the district a model one. He instructed to keep the hospital clean.

The collector asked all the health officers to utilise fund of Jeevandeep Society for providing basic facilities to hospitals. A good atmosphere should be given to patients by installing flex regarding health programmes and by painting the wards with attractive colours.

He said that patients should have the feeling that they are getting proper treatment in the hospital. Sanitary workers should be appointed to keep the hospitals clean and they should be paid from the Jeevandeep Society fund.

Pardeshi said that Jeevandeep Society’s rate list and board of Public Service Guarantee Scheme should necessarily be put up and during his visit, the Chief Medical, and Health Officer (CMHO) should see to it that the instructions were being carried out.

Expressing his displeasure on the delay in giving the incentive to Mitanins, the collector told the CMHO that the amount for Mitanins had been given to Janpad Panchayats. He instructed the District Panchayat officer to transfer the amount from all the Janpad Panchayats to Village Panchayats immediately and to give Mitanins their dues.

After collecting information from the block medical officers who have not achieved the target in institutional deliveries and vaccination programme, the collector asked them to work hard to bring progress in the work in accordance to the target and to work by preparing an action plan.

The collector instructed that besides spraying medicine, other efforts should be made to prevent malaria in sensitive areas. He directed to extend facilities of blood slide testing and blood collection centres to the hospitals of sensitive areas of Pendra, Gaurela and Marwahi.

The collector instructed to impart training to women principals and teachers of schools and hostel superintendents for the successful implementation of menstrual hygiene programme.
