He also stressed the use of knowledge from training programs to improve the quality of healthcare services.
The CMHO office maintained a deep connection with social causes, undertaking several innovative initiatives such as organ donation awareness, cultural programs for children, mobile eye screening vans, online OPD appointments, and health camps. A total of 35 health institutions in the district received NQAS certification. Dr. Tiwari concluded by stating that maintaining the continuity of this ‘community-based approach’ should remain a priority for the department.
