Budgam, May 15: In a significant step towards strengthening the healthcare infrastructure and enhancing patient care services, Speaker Legislative Assembly, Abdul Rahim Rather, Friday inaugurated the newly established healthcare facilities at Community Health Centre (CHC) Kremshore.
The facilities included a dedicated Hotline Service, an Ultrasonography (USG) Machine and a modern Dental Chair, all aimed at improving the accessibility, diagnostic capabilities and quality healthcare delivery for the local population.
Speaking on the occasion, the Speaker emphasized the government’s commitment towards strengthening the healthcare services at the grassroots level. He stated that upgrading the medical infrastructure in rural areas remains a priority to ensure timely diagnosis, better treatment facilities and reduced dependence on tertiary healthcare institutions. He highlighted that the addition of advanced diagnostic and dental facilities at CHC Kremshore would significantly benefit the patients from Kremshore and adjoining areas.
