Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today said her government would further modernise and develop the district and upazila level hospitals alongside the Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH) if they get another chance to serve the nation.
“If we get another chance to serve the nation in future, InshaAllah, we will further develop the Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH) and each district and upazila hospital to reach healthcare services to people’s doorsteps,” she said.
She said this while virtually inaugurating “65 community eye centres” at 65 Upazila Health Complexes in 28 districts, in the fourth phase, under Health and Family Welfare Ministry, from her official Ganabhaban residence here.
The eye centres were launched as part of the current government’s move to set up it at every upazila across the country.
The prime minister said they will upgrade the DMCH to 4000 to 5000-bed hospital with ultramodern facilities.
“We could have done it during our government’s current period, if the Covid-19 did not hit Bangladesh like the entire world,” she said.
Her government had been able to save the people’s lives from the pandemic despite thousands of people died of Covid-19 across the globe including many rich countries, she said.
“We had to spend a plenty of money to save people’s lives from the pandemic,” she added.বিস্তারিত
