The minister appealed to the people to make the best use of the PHC. He claimed the state has one of the best health care infrastructures in the country and an investigation team from UP appreciated the functioning and the condition of the primary health centres in Nagaland during their visit.
Nienu also called upon the people to co-operate with the department of health & family welfare to ensure a good healthcare delivery system. He said the PHC will enable people to avail proper health care facilities in rural areas itself instead of spending huge amount of money on treatment in urban areas.
The minister also disclosed that the state government has approved the proposal to start three nursing schools in the state and the construction of the first institute of nursing school at the Christian Institute of Health and Science Research (CIHSR) has been completed in Dimapur.
