CMHO Dr. Ajay Singla reached the CHC on Saturday morning. Here, he visited the dental specialist Dr. Subhash Maheshwari’s room during the OPD. The doctor told him that the dental chair had been condemned by the company. Despite this, the dental chair has been repaired twice at the local level. In this regard, CMHO instructed to send a report to the social service organizations or higher authorities to arrange for a new dental chair. Dr. Subhash Maheshwari said that contact has been made with the officials of Shri Cement for a new dental chair. The company officials have sent a letter to the high officials with the budget. Approval is pending, and a new dental chair will be available soon. In this regard, CMHO gave necessary directions to BMO Dr. Manoj Agarwal.

Digital X-ray available on WhatsApp

CMHO also inspected the X-ray room. During this, he said that the cost of X-ray films can be reduced. For this, instead of printing the X-rays, they can be sent to the patients’ and concerned doctors’ mobile numbers via WhatsApp. This facility will provide relief to the patients and reduce expenses.
