Ranchi, Jharkhand – In a landmark move to improve healthcare access and dental services across the state, Jharkhand’s Health Minister Irfan Ansari has announced the establishment of 1,000 new primary health centres (PHCs). This ambitious initiative is set to integrate dental services within the state’s healthcare system, marking a significant step towards comprehensive medical care for residents.
The announcement was made during the inaugural state-level dental conclave organized by the Jharkhand Health Services Association. Speaking at the event, Minister Ansari outlined the government’s plans to ensure that these new PHCs will be equipped with modern technology, aiming to enhance the quality and efficiency of dental care in the region.
Ansari stressed that the integration of dental services into the newly established centres would address long-standing gaps in healthcare accessibility, particularly for rural populations. He assured dental professionals that the government remains committed to meeting the needs of dentists and other healthcare workers, ensuring that they have the resources and support necessary to perform their duties effectively.
“The safety and well-being of our duty-doctors and healthcare workers are paramount,” Ansari said. “This initiative is designed not only to provide better healthcare access to our people but also to improve the working conditions of those on the front lines of dental and medical care.”
The new health centres are expected to bolster the state’s existing infrastructure and provide residents with easier access to crucial dental services, which are often limited in rural areas. The modernization of dental facilities, along with the integration of state-of-the-art technology, promises to raise the standard of care available in the region.
As Jharkhand continues to evolve its healthcare system, this initiative signals a major shift towards holistic medical service delivery, with a focus on preventative care and treatment for dental health. The 1,000 new centres will play a vital role in meeting the state’s healthcare challenges and improving the overall quality of life for its residents.
