has been reported to me that there are five doctors posted in the hospital and
in addition to that, one Homeopathic doctor is also posted in this Community
Health Centre. But at the time of my visit, only Homeopathic
doctor was present. None of the other doctor was present in the hospital till
One
Pharmacist and one staff nurse were on leave. Their leave applications were
lying in the register.
No
lab technicians was present. Only one nurse namely Ravinder Kaur was present who was
looking after the hospital where 9 patients were lying admitted after
operation. There was so many beds of the patients but
without bed sheets of the hospital. The compound of the hospital was not
properly neat and clean. It has been
reported by the public present at that time of my visit and by the press reporters
that all the doctors are doing private practice and used to come late in the
Community Health Centre, Haryana.

make necessary arrangements for the maintenance of hospital and to keep the
hospital neat and clean.
