It was stressed by Tewari that every effort must be made to ensure that patients are given absolutely the best treatment on the priority basis. Tewari also lauded the contribution of those doctors, who work in government hospitals, and said that they are doing a great public service by serving the people in government institutions, rather than in the private sector. It was felt that there should be an over all holistic review of the facilities that were available in in the government multi-speciality hospital sector 16 and then a four year plan should be drawn up in order to see as to how those facility can be augmented to best serve the people.
Patients must be given best treatment on the priority basis: Manish Tewari . Since the capital expenditure incurred by the general multi-speciality hospital is on the lower side, Tewari stressed that the funds which are available with the Jan Arogya Kalyan Samiti, those funds should be used more on the capital side, rather than the revenue side. Tewari advised the officials of the sector-16 hospital that a comprehensive holistic plan should be prepared in order to ensure that there is a proper collaborated approach towards how the funds available with the Jan Arogya Kalyan Samiti, which is the registered society, are to be spent.
