The Punjab government is taking a significant step to bolster healthcare services in the Mohali region. A proposal to upgrade the existing Community Health Centre (CHC) in Dhakoli into a more robust 50-bedded health facility is now under active consideration by the state authorities.
MLA Chairs Review Meeting for Infrastructure Boost
This development follows a crucial meeting of the Rogi Kalyan Samiti held at the Dhakoli CHC. The meeting was chaired by MLA (Derabassi) Kuljit Singh Randhawa to conduct a thorough review of the current healthcare services and discuss planned improvements to the infrastructure. The focus was on identifying gaps and formulating a concrete plan for enhancement.
More Beds, More Doctors: A Direct Benefit for Residents
During the review, MLA Randhawa highlighted the direct impact the upgrade would have on medical services for local residents. He emphasized that the expansion to a 50-bed capacity is not just about adding more beds. The key outcome will be the deployment of additional specialist doctors and supporting medical staff at the centre.
This strategic move is expected to significantly improve the range and quality of treatments available locally. Residents of Dhakoli and surrounding areas, who previously had to travel to larger hospitals for specialised care, may soon have access to better facilities closer to home.
A Step Towards Strengthening Public Health Infrastructure
The proposed upgrade of the Dhakoli CHC aligns with broader efforts to strengthen Punjab's public health infrastructure at the grassroots level. Enhancing community health centres is vital for decongesting major hospitals and ensuring timely medical intervention for a larger population. The active consideration of this proposal indicates a positive push towards making quality healthcare more accessible in the region.
