OPD services, surgeries to resume in Kashmir hospitals | | | EARly Times Report
Srinagar, July 9: The authorities have ordered resumption of Out Patient Departments (OPDs), surgeries and other healthcare services in hospitals across Kashmir valley in view of decline in the number of COVID-19 cases. An order issued by Directorate of Health Services, Kashmir, said that there has been a ‘drastic decrease’ in hospital admissions of COVID-19 patients. “And as a DRDO hospital has come up in Srinagar for COVID positive patients, it is enjoined upon all chief medical officers, medical superintendents and block medical officers under the administrative control of this Directorate to resume OPD, surgeries and other routine healthcare facilities services in all the health institutions under their respective jurisdictions forthwith in the interest of better patient care,” it said. However, the order said that few separate well-equipped oxygenated beds should be kept available for emergency purposes, including in Gynecology, Obstetrics and Pediatrics. Besides, it said all COVID related Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) must be followed in letter and spirit. The authorities had ordered closed of OPD and some other services in the hospital in Kashmir after the second COVID-19 wave hit the Union Territory, resulting in unabated rise in the number of positive cases.
