​Hyderabad: Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao, on Thursday, directed the officials of Medical and Health department that they should work more efficiently and scientifically to improve the public health services in the State.
The Chief Minister wanted the officials to find out which diseases are prevalent in which area and take preventive measures accordingly. “One should be cautious about the seasonal diseases and people should be pre warned and necessary preventive steps be notified.
Since the government is spending large funds and improving the facilities at the government hospitals, the Medical and Health department should work for the poor,” he said. KCR held a review meeting on Medical and Health at Pragati Bhavan here.
Ministers Laxma Reddy, T Harish Rao, Etela Rajender, MPs Kavita, G Sukhender Reddy, Chief Secretary SP Singh, Principal Secretaries Rajeshwar Tiwari, S Narsing Rao, Secretary Sandeep Sultania and MLA G Kishore participated.
He emphasised on the need to create awareness among people about the prevention of seasonal diseases like Swine-flu, sun stroke, cholera and viral fevers. In certain areas there is filaria and awareness has to be created among the people, he said.
Some people have no habit of going to hospitals even if they are unwell, move such people to hospitals. Medical staff should also undergo training from time to time. Prepare 100 Resource persons and impart training to them.
Prepare district wise health profile,” the Chief Minister said. The Chief Minister also wanted KCR Kits programme and financial aid to be implemented successfully.
