Refurbished:Collector P. Seetharaman inaugurating the renovated emergency ward in the Cuddalore Headquarters Government Hospital on Monday.
CUDDALORE:
Collector P. Seetharaman inaugurated the renovated emergency ward in the Cuddalore headquarters government hospital on Monday. The ward was redone with new flooring, windows, electrical fittings and life-saving oxygen and glucose connections at a cost of Rs.6 lakh. The Collector told the reporters that when he visited the hospital recently the emergency ward was in such a condition that would not instil confidence among the patients. Therefore, he directed the Executive Engineer of the Public Works Department (Buildings) K. Manoharan to take up the renovation works and based on the blueprint he had sanctioned a sum of Rs.6 lakh.
The Collector further said that the emergency ward should be neat and clean so as to create a feeling among the patients that they were in a safe place. He noted that in the 25-bedded wing the emergency cases would be classified into three categories —critical, less critical and those who need regular attention —and accordingly treated. The X-Ray section, a dark room and a diagnostic section in the wing were also given a facelift so as to make it on par with the private hospitals. A specially designed toilet facility for the sake of the differently-abled persons too had been put up.
Air-conditioning:
The Chemplast Sanmar had donated three air-conditioning units to the emergency ward for which the Collector thanked the company. Those who participated on the occasion included District Revenue Officer S. Natarajan, Joint Director (Health) Jaya Veerakumar, Hospital Superintendent Paranjothi, Deputy Superintendent of Police S.S. Maheswaran, Resident Medical Officer Govindaraj and Chemplast Sanmar Chief Executive Officer Mohan.
