Gandachhera, Feb 20: With Assembly polls are over, focus on development activities is back on track - Gandachhera sub-divisional hospital is set to get its first Oxygen plant.
The works for setting up the plant started around three months ago. The works are going on in full swing and the plant is expected to be functional very soon.
The initiative comes under State Government's plan to decentralise the health care system for the benefit of rural people.
Speaking to the media, SDMO in-charge Dr Chiranjit Das acknowledged that the patients of the Gandachhera Hospital will be immensely benefitted. He said, at present, the Hospital is dependent on Oxygen cylinders which are being filled up in Agartala and brought to the Hospital for uses.
After the works of the Oxygen plant is completed, the difficulties in procuring the Cylinders will be addressed, Dr Das said and added, the hospital will have the facility of bedside oxygen through the pipe line. He said that after completing all the testing, oxygen supply from the plant will begin. Photo attached.
