A basic hospital has come into operation in Gulmidarbar Rural Municipality. A newly constructed 15-bed basic hospital has come into operation under the government's 'One Municipality: One Basic Hospital' campaign.
Lumbini Province Economic Affairs and Planning Minister Dhanendra Karki formally inaugurated the basic hospital on Monday. Saroj Kumar Thapa, chairman of Gulmeedarbar Rural Municipality, said that the hospital has been put into operation by arranging for 12 health workers including one MBBS. Gulmidarbar Basic Hospital was completed for the first time in the district 2 years ago.
It is the responsibility of the local municipality to operate the hospital built with a special grant from the federal government. On June 15, 2078, Bikoi Arjun Newlija Gulmi was entrusted with the construction. The construction of the municipal hospital was completed in June 2080. The municipal hospital building was built at a total cost of Rs. 129.4 million. According to the standard of
hospital, there are 32 posts including 28 health workers and 4 office assistants with 3 MBBS. Village Chairman Thapa said that the local municipality is not in a position to run the hospital by appointing the posts according to the standards.
"The hospital runs in the current situation," he said, "the municipality cannot run it by appointing new employees." At present, an MBBS doctor has been appointed to the hospital. The rest of the health workers were brought to the hospital from other local health posts. In the
hospital, the government of Lumbini province had arranged necessary equipment such as bed, ECG machine, ultrasound machine, oxygen concentrator machine. Inaugurating the newly constructed building of the hospital, Minister Karki said that the prepared local basic hospital will be included in the upcoming policies and programs.
"Health workers who have studied MBBS in scholarship should be arranged to come to the municipality for at least 2 years," he said, "The hospital should be brought into operation so that citizens can get treatment in the village."
