New Delhi: Delhi Health Minister A K Walia
today dedicated modern diagnostic facilities in two major
hospitals in the city on the occasion of the World Health
Organisation Day.
A CT scan facility was inaugurated in Chacha Nehru Bal
Chikitsalaya, which is a super-speciality hospital for
paediatric diseases in Geeta Colony, whereas an ICU was
inaugurated in Dr Hedgewar Arogya Sansthan in east Delhi.
Noting that the theme of the WHO Day this time is
'Combat Antibiotic Resistance', Walia said people have been
indiscriminately taking antibiotic without consulting any
physician. He asked them consult any qualified physician
before taking any antibiotic which may prove to be harmful.
Walia said the city government is committed to providing
quality health services across Delhi and a number of new
hospitals have been planned to ensure better health coverage.
