Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak said that the common people will get immediate treatment even in the villages of the state while high-quality health services will be made available to serious patients sitting at home by identifying them.
On Monday, Pathak flagged off the mobile medical unit run by the voluntary organization The Hans Foundation at the State Institute of Health and Family Welfare. Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak said, “This service has been started in ten districts of the state (Prayagraj, Varanasi, Sonbhadra, Chandauli, Chitrakoot, Fatehpur, Shravasti, Bahraich, Balrampur and Siddharthnagar) with the help of Hans Foundation to take health services to the doorsteps of common people.”
“Necessary equipment and medicines will be available in these units along with MBBS doctors, pharmacists, ANMs and lab technicians. A total of 74 mobile medical units have been made operational. Free general OPD and primary check-up services will be made available in two-gram panchayats daily through the available resources in these vehicles operated by social unit “The Hans Foundation” established in 2009,” he added.
The Deputy CM further said, “With this, serious diseases can be identified timely and treatment can be provided to them.”
