CGHS
Wellness Centres
The cleaning work
(housekeeping) has been outsourced in the CGHS due to vacant posts of
Safaiwala. The outsourcing has been done pursuant to DoPT guidelines that no
further recruitment to Group D posts would be done w.e.f. April 2010.
In view of the
overcrowding in certain CGHS wellness centres elderly beneficiaries may have to
wait to meet the doctors and collect medicines.
CGHS has already
issued guidelines that elderly beneficiaries will be provided privileged access
to medical facilities at the dispensaries in order to minimize the waiting time
of the elderly patients.
The CGHS dispensary
proposed at Najafgarh is yet to be handed over to CGHS by the Delhi Police
authority who has constructed the building in the premises of the Police
Training School, Jhadoda Kalan. This is a temporary accommodation for the CGHS
wellness centre till a permanent premise is built in Najafgarh area.
The Health Minister,
Shri J P Nadda stated this in a written reply in the Lok Sabha here today.
