Phamacies attached to our family Doctors are they ok ?

Many hospitals in Kakinada and surrounding  having attached pharmacies, these pharmacy are run by the doctor or by the kin of the doctors , mostly who are unqualified  attendants, these pharmacy are run to server  the scrawls written by  the doctors,

As per the mandatory norms scheduled H drugs are to be sold with care and by qualified persons,

But these  pharmacy  of doctors serve only costly drugs of certain companies, what ever the aliment may be the doctor prescribes the  drugs available at his pharmacy, patients will also have a bonding of buying the medicines at the doctors own pharmacy for two reasons

One for pleasing the doctor, other the fear of change of medicines at the outer pharmacy, actually the same drug will be available for a  low price which are manufactures by other company

Many times we have cross checked it, but, still we buy at the doctors pharmacy.

We citizens of Kakinada should come out of this myth and we should find the drug name and chemical formula and we can use the medicines available at other medical stores, we can also support the government oushadi stores in the GGH compound, where medicines are much cheaper.

Medicines are prescribed by doctors by their band name but, not by  their Generic name, and what we actually pay for the medicines are al ot more, so, better visit sites like these

www.medguideindia.com

click on the drugs

click on the bran

then  the name of your drug

click on the Generics , it will display the ingredients of your medicine,

click on the matched brands with above Constituents

for example

Metocard XL 50 is Rs 62.00 by some xyz companies, but the same drug is available for only Rs 7.00 by another branded drug manufacture.

see the difference, in this was we are being cheated.

Better Kakinada urges doctors to be more responsible and you should remember the Hippocratic oat when you prescribe medicines.

No proper toilets in Schools

The "National Urban Sanitation Policy" launched in 2008 gives the first dictum that the most imperative requirement to achieve 100% sanitation is the Awareness Generation & Behavioral Change".

This organison has given these ratings in schools for sanitation.

 Green

 Blue

 Yellow

 Black

 Red

Today in India 30.66 million urban households, which form 35.49% of the urban households, suffer inadequate access to sanitation facilities and people either defecate in the open or use shared and community lavatories.

 Besides being an issue of human dignity, this practice results in unsafe disposal of human excreta which has a severe impact on environmental and health outcomes. The inadequate and unsanitary disposal of excreta leads to contamination of ground water and surface water. The loss due to diseases arising out of poor sanitation for children under 14 years in urban areas alone is estimated at Rs. 500 Crores at 2001 prices. A related concern is that of manual scavenging which has not been eliminated in our country even after 60 years after independence.

To make the situation better the orgnasion has conducted a test In schools and as part of the test these results came out surprising in India, where we claim about big tall schools , corporate schools, international schools, to the great surprise of the nation only 1 percent schools  were able to pass the test.

Less than 25 out of the 100 CBSE schools in Andhra Pradesh  applied for the Board’s National School Sanitation Initiative. Of them, 19 have received a “red rating”, the lowest.

Only two schools in the state managed to get a “yellow rating” indicating a fair level of sanitation with room for improvement.

The scenario at the national level is no better. While 520 CBSE schools across the country had applied for ratings, only three could meet the sanitation norms.

If this is the case at national level and state level , what will be situation at Kakinada schools, we are sorry to report about the schools in Kakinada, after our survey and visits to many schools by our better kakinada team we found the situation very stinky, with dry toilets, toilets without running water, unclean toilet seats, in some schools so, called English medium schools children are using public places for toilets, in some schools girl children are not having proper toilets, a nation shame.

We team better Kakinada urges schools to have basic facilities for children.
