Nursing Degree Holder Running Clinic, Sealed

Banswara: The team of the District Medical and Health Department comprising CMHO Dr. HL Tabiar, Deputy CMHO Dr. Rahul Dindor and District Tuberculosis Officer Dr. PK Verma took action at two places on Monday.

A person with a BSc Nursing degree was found running a clinic in Motagaon. A female patient was also found admitted here. The clinic was not registered.

There was no license from the Pollution Control Board and no arrangements for bio waste disposal. According to the rules, a person with a BSc Nursing degree can run a clinic after registration but he has to hire a doctor to treat patients. Medicines can be given only on the prescription of a doctor. Other licenses also have to be taken. The CMHO has sealed the clinic.

Instructions were given to get registered and to provide treatment only on doctor’s prescription. Based on a complaint received at the CMHO office, the team raided a house in Sundni. Only spectacles making material was found in the shop outside the house. The CMHO said that a complaint was received about an illegal hospital running in a shop outside the house of a person named Ajit Garg in Sundni village.

There was a machine for eye examination and material for making glasses was kept here. A person named Ajit Garg was not found. The complainant has made a false complaint. No allopathic medicines were found here. While visiting Motagaon, a 108 ambulance was stopped. The driver said that he had come after dropping a patient suffering from stomach ache but there was no other personnel in the ambulance except the driver. On this, the CMHO has directed the District Coordinator to submit a detailed report.
