Government for ensuring health services to common people

The present government led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has taken massive steps for ensuring health and medicare services to the common people for building a healthier
nation.

Chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on the Ministry of Road Transport & Bridges Nazmul Haque Prodhan MP said this while presiding over monthly meeting of Sadar Modernised Hospital at its conference room in Panchagarh town on Sunday.

Civil Surgeon of Panchagarh Dr Ahad Ali, ADC (General) Shamsul Azam, General Secretary (GS) of Panchagarh unit of Bangladesh Medical Association Dr Mansur Alam and General Secretary of district Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal Abdus Sattar addressed.

Members of the Health Service Development Committee (HSDC) of the hospital, its physicians, officials, nurses and employees, officials of the other health related departments, civil society members and local elite were present.

In his speech, Prodhan said the common people are getting health services easily at their doorsteps following the effective steps taken by the government, including re-launching of the community clinics, in every ward of all unions in the country.

Prodhan, also President of the HSDC of the hospital, said the then AL government led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, after assuming power in 1996, launched community clinic to ensure health services for the rural people.

But, unfortunately, the subsequent BNP-Jamaat government closed down all community clinics depriving the common people of getting health and medicare services easily at their doorsteps.

After coming to power again in 2009, the pro-people government led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina re-launched the community clinics and the common people have been getting health services easily at their doorsteps everywhere now, he added.

He directed physicians of the hospital for providing health and medicare services to the common people with utmost sincerity upholding sprit of their noble profession to make the government's health services for all programmes successful.

Later, Prodhan handed over an ambulance, given by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, to the hospital authority for providing ambulance services to the common people to further improve health services the district.
