Early Times Report

Kupwara, Dec 14: With a hope, patients visit government run hospitals for better treatment but after witnessing the poor and unbearable conditions, the patients and their attendants rue their luck and expresses their anger when a hospital like DH Kupwara sans basic facilities.
According to sources that the DH Kupwara lacks basic facilities including of cleanliness, floors and corners of the hospital are dirty and the main gate of the hospital is like an open field where stray dogs made their entries and roam freely in the hospital premises.
The hospital is in pathetic condition and not only this but there are several such complaints that patients have been observing who are stayed there for past several days, sources told early times.
Sources said that the inaccessibility of basic amenities at the hospital has pushed the patients and their attendants to the wall during these harsh and cold wintering days, this hospital is situated in the heart of a main town of Kupwara.
Almost there are more than 130 villages in Kupwara district, and mostly people from border areas visit this hospital with a hope of better treatments and hospitality but they agony over their luck and administration that have not supported them in the need of time, sources complained.
Sources quoted the attendants as having said that, the patients admitted in the different wards of the hospital have noticed that "the rusted gas heaters put in the wards are out dated and the connecting gas pipes of these heaters are draped with a tape which has created a fear of any untoward occurrence among the patients.
As of being aware with actualities the hospital administration turns a blind eye towards the grave concern, and for all these irregularities the hospital authorities will be held responsible if any untoward incident happened there, adding the border residents gets step motherly treatment as they are not human beings at all.
Sources further said that sometimes the patients have to get their normal or digital x ray tests done in private, as the hospital don't use the generator or a Digital X-ray machine, thus forcing people to visit to the private clinics.
