It must be ensured that health workers wear uniform
Physical verification of health institutions to be made thrice a year, Instructions issued to field workers on the orders of Health Minister Shri Anup Mishra
Bhopal:Sunday, May 16, 2010:
Orders have been issued to the health workers posted in the government hospitals for wearing uniform invariably. Doctors have also been told to wear aprons during the duty hours. Orders have been issued to this effect to all the Chief Medical and Health Officers and Hospital Superintendents on the instruction of Minister for Public Health, Family Welfare, Medical Education and AYUSH Shri Anup Mishra.
Public Health Minister Shri Mishra had noticed during the review of health services and programmes that work is hampered due to non-identification of health staff at government hospitals. Though uniforms for ANMs, staff nurse and class IV employees are fixed, yet they are complying with the rule strictly. Now, all the CMHOs and Hospital Superintendents have been instructed to ensure wearing of uniform by the health staff strictly. Disciplinary action should be taken against those who do not comply with these instructions. On the instructions of the Health Minister, the field health workers have also been told to use the generators first for maintaining cold chain and in blood bank and emergency cases. The health officers have also been told to undertake physical verification of their respective health institutions thrice a year in the months of April, July and October while the health institutions will be physically verified twice a year by outside health officers. Verification of stock register balance, issue register, expenses register, case papers and cross verification of entries of medicines will be done invariably. The information about the physical verification on the basis of stipulated rotation should be sent to divisional joint director within seven days.
