UNION Minister for Health Professor Dr Thet Khaing Win said if patients with emergency medical conditions such as gastric bleeding, stroke, and myocardial infarction receive timely medical care, their lives can be saved.
The Union Minister gave the instructions during the meeting
with the Medical Superintendent, Professors, and doctors in charge at the Nay
Pyi Taw People’s Hospital (1,000-bed) yesterday morning. He expressed words of
thanks to all the health workers who were working hard to ensure the regular
operation of the hospital and the provision of emergency medical care.
“Now is the time to step up efforts to improve access to
medical care and human health resources for the people. People’s hospitals are
the mainstays of the people, and efforts must be made to upgrade the emergency
and regular medical services and provide effective treatment,” he said.
It is learnt that Nay Pyi Taw People’s Hospital (1000- bed)
is a affiliate teaching hospital of the University of Medicine Magway but will
soon be upgraded to a major teaching hospital. Furthermore, the Ministry of
Health provides essential medicines and hospital supplies for medical
treatment.
The Union minister called on the professors in charge and
specialists to be involved in the development of human resources through
acadeomic activities, to provide necessary facilities, including restrooms and
classrooms for medical students, to become a teaching hospital, and to upgrade
the hospital’s medical services to include transplant surgery (example: kidney
transplant surgery).
Afterwards, the Union minister and party visited the
One-Stop Diabetes Centre for Diabetes and its complications, patients being
treated with anti-cancer drugs at the Department of Chemotherapy, installation
and maintenance of equipment including SPECT Scan machine in the Nuclear
Radiation Department, and Cardiac Catheterization Lab. It is learned that the
necessary instructions were given after the inspection.
