(Jind News) Jind. The control work on health facilities was carried out through drills in the civil hospital. An effort was made to show the best arrangements in the hospital to ADC Vivek Arya, who came to see the drill. While the hospital’s oxygen plant has been out of service for a year. Somehow the ICU is working. During the drill, doctors were found waiting for patients. While patients who come here for treatment are shown the way to IGP Rohtak with the least seriousness. There is a huge shortage of doctors. Patients cannot even get complete medicines.
The drill begins on Thursday morning with the arrival of ADC Vivek Arya. CMO Dr Gopal Goyal briefs the ADC about the hospital arrangements. Drill: Ambulances arrive one after another and patients are immediately taken on stretchers to the emergency department of the civil hospital for treatment. Doctors and other health workers of the civil hospital are already prepared here. Regular healthcare workers were also seen using PP kits, which is not common. As soon as the patients arrive one after another, the process of providing them with treatment begins. During this time the stretcher cannot be opened.
Along with healthcare workers, doctors also start treating everyone with full enthusiasm. People present at the scene say that if the emergency patient received treatment so quickly, the lives of many people would be saved. However, when the people present at the hospital later learn that it was a drill, they breathe a sigh of relief.
Health personnel fully prepared for drill
The entire hospital administration was prepared since the morning for the drill. Doctors, nurses, sweepers, ward boys and other staff were deployed at their respective places. Medications, stretchers, carts and other important items were also kept in their place just outside the old hospital building. There were stretchers outside the hospital. Thanks to the drill, the stretcher and cart remained intact in the hospital emergency. When the patient arrived during the drill, they put these on him and took him to the emergency room. During the drill, a patient got up from the ambulance and lay down on a stretcher.
Which made everyone laugh. During the drill, the role of the ambulance department was also verified. It was noted how quickly a critically ill patient could be taken to the hospital. If the ambulance is parked at the main door of the hospital, the path there will not be obstructed. How does the medical technician accompanying the ambulance help the patient? Accounts of everything were prepared. Additional Deputy Commissioner Vivek Arya said that after the drill he also inspected the hospital.
The goal of the drill is to make government-provided emergency services available to the public in a timely manner. The standard time for the ambulance to reach the accident scene is 10 to 15 minutes and in the drill, the ambulance reached the scene in 10 to 12 minutes and the patient was immediately taken to emergency and treatment was started. During the exercise, response processes to various diseases, disasters and accidents were also demonstrated. Thanks to this, employees acquired the experience of working quickly and collectively.
The hospital’s oxygen plant has been out of service for the past year.
The oxygen plant in civil hospitals has been out of service for a year. Due to lack of budget, the plant is not being repaired. The work is done with oxygen cylinders. However, before the drill, the plant was cleaned. Here the sweep was done. After this, the oxygen points and the oxygen arrangements made in the rooms were observed.
