Srinagar: In a meeting of doctors
association Kashmir (DAK) chaired by president Dr Nissar-ul-Hassan, at government
medical college Srinagar many issues relating to patient care and difficulties
faced by doctors were discussed in detail.
According to a statement issued to KNS, doctors came down
heavily on the successive governments for the failure to upgrade health system
in the state. “It is overall very difficult for doctors to work in primitive
and vulnerable conditions in hospitals. There is dire need to develop newer
model of health care system as now a day’s clinical skills are not sufficient
unless synergized by the use of modern hi-tech technology to provide evidence
based care to poor people.”
The statement said that they showed concern that the
primary health care system is nonexistent in Kashmir and underscored the need
for its introduction on priority. It is only primary health care system which
will provide timely treatment to patients and reduce ever growing rush to
central hospitals. There is immediate need to start Baramulla medical
college and Anantnag medical college to give quality care at door step.
DAK showed satisfaction over the multidimensional,
holistic development in GB Pant hospital in general and resident doctors in
particular. Dr Nissar praised resident doctors of hospital for their day night
hard efforts to serve humanity in difficult conditions. Though our doctors are
not getting good facilities’, incentives, congenial environment to work, they
work only to please their conscience. I congratulate those doctors who have
dedicated their life to serve humanity and many times donate blood for patients
Dr Nissar added.
At the same time people of Kashmir have to understand
that doctors are not faith healers. They have to understand the system and urge
people to acknowledge the services rendered by doctors in abnormally abnormal
conditions. Dr Naik Pediatrician spokesperson DAK said that there is a palpable
change in GB Pant hospital. Expansion of hospital in to neonatal intensive
care, pediatric intensive care, high dependency units has refined patient care
and management.
“Up gradation of different facilities at hospital like
radiology, microbiology, biochemistry is helping doctors to address patient
problems promptly with standard treatment protocols of hospital. DAK urges
doctors and paramedics of the valley to work with dedication and sincerity so
that the age old bond between patients and doctors is cemented.” (KNS)
