MULTAN:

A delegation of Pakistan Medical Association (PMA) , led by Dr Masood Haraj, met with Deputy Commissioner Waseem Hamid Sandhu and discussed matters pertaining to the welfare of patients.

The delegation informed the DC that renovation work at Nishtar Hospital had become a problem for patients as despite completion of many wards, they remained closed due to lack of equipment.

They complained that the patients were being shifted to overcrowded wards and it was disrupting treatment. Emergency and OPD renovation is also progressing very slowly.

They also highlighted the issues of incomplete work and overcrowded wards. The Deputy Commissioner assured them that Emergency and OPD work would be completed by October 30.

The delegation demanded a bus service from Nishtar-I to Nishtar-II for staff. They suggested setting up an Edhi ambulance center at Nishtar II as well.
