Emphasising the need for punctuality, the DC directed the CMO and BMOs to ensure that doctors and staff adhere to duty schedule in Sub Divisional hospitals and other government health facilities in the periphery. The BMOs were thoroughly questioned about the conduct and results of prescription audits in their jurisdictions, with a strong emphasis on reducing illegible prescription slips. The DC instructed the SDMs to take cognisance of non-compliance and take necessary action.
Additionally, the DC stressed the importance of proper maintenance of records and registers, medicine stocks, changing bed sheets according to protocols and ensuring sanitation and professionalism in the hospitals.
