TRANSPARENCY WINS: A BIG STEP FOR PATIENT CARE AT GMC ANANTNAG
When citizens raise constructive demands, positive change follows. A few days ago, I brought forward a crucial issue regarding the need for strict transparency and medical ethics in our local healthcare facilities. Today, I am glad to share a highly positive development for the people of our region.
The Medical Superintendent of MMABM Associated Hospital, GMC Anantnag, has issued directives ensuring the daily preparation, compilation, and display of duty rosters for all Doctors and healthcare personnel. These rosters will now be clearly visible at prominent locations across the hospital, including OPDs, Wards, Nursing Stations, Operation Theatres, ICUs, and Emergency areas.
Why does this matter? Because every patient and their family deserves to know exactly who is responsible for their care. This move not only brings much-needed accountability to our medical services but also restores public confidence in our healthcare infrastructure.
I extend my sincere thanks to the hospital administration for listening to the democratic voice of the people and taking prompt, pro-public action. Governance improves when authorities and citizens work together for the common good. Let’s continue to advocate for a dignified, transparent, and robust healthcare system in Anantnag.
