In a significant move towards understanding healthcare realities on the ground, the Health Minister personally attended the Outpatient Department (OPD) at Sadar Hospital. The Minister actively engaged with patients, listened to their concerns, and even prescribed necessary medications, demonstrating a hands-on approach to public health administration. This initiative aims to provide direct insights into the challenges faced by both patients and medical staff within public healthcare facilities. The Minister’s participation in the OPD is expected to pave the way for targeted improvements and policy changes to enhance patient care and hospital efficiency. By experiencing the daily operations firsthand, the Minister can better advocate for resource allocation and infrastructural development. This direct interaction underscores a commitment to responsive governance and citizen-centric healthcare solutions. The observations made during this OPD session will be crucial in shaping future healthcare strategies and ensuring that public hospitals effectively serve the community’s needs.
