PESHAWAR: The provincial government has allocated Rs1770 million for the renovation, beautification, repair and cleanliness of the four teaching hospitals of the province.

According to a statement, Rs300 million, Rs700 million, 400 million and Rs370 million have been allocated to Lady Reading Hospital (LRH), Khyber Teaching Hospital (KTH), Hayatabad Medical Complex (HMC) and Ayub Medical Complex (AMC) respectively.

In this connection a meeting was held with Health Minister Shahram Tarakai in the chair. The meeting was attended by special secretary health, additional secretary health, and dean of Postgraduate Medical Institute Peshawar, directors of LRH, HMC and KTH and other relevant quarters.

It was revealed in the meeting that out of the total allocated amount, Rs742.9 million had already been released to those hospitals for the current financial year.

The minister directed the quarters concerned to take all necessary steps to start work on renovation, beautification and cleanliness of those hospitals on war footings.

He said that cleanliness in health service delivery outlets was of prime importance which could not be compromised because hospital with dirty environment couldn’t cure diseases but spread diseases.

The meeting was informed that separate PC-1 for renovation and beautification of each hospital was being prepared.

Very good step. Our hospitals all over Pakistan need much needed funding as hospitals and education are those sectors where any money placed in it is less.
